With file-converter-online.com, you can convert Microsoft Write documents (.WRI files) directly to PDF in your browser. The conversion takes place on our servers and works without software installation on any device, whether running Windows, macOS, or Linux.
What are WRI files?
The WRI format dates back to the early days of Windows: From 1985 to 1995, Microsoft Write was the standard word processor under Windows. With Windows 95, Write was replaced by WordPad, and the format was superseded by RTF and DOC. Anyone who still has old WRI files today, for example from archives, floppy disks, or old backups, faces the problem that current versions of Word can no longer open the format.
Why choose PDF as the target format?
PDF is the ideal format for archived documents. Unlike the outdated WRI format, PDF can be opened on virtually any device without special software. The layout is preserved exactly. Once converted, the file can easily be sent by email, printed, or archived.
This is how the conversion works
- Drag and drop the WRI file into the upload field above or upload it via "Select file".
- PDF is already pre-selected as the target format.
- Click "Start conversion"
- Download the finished PDF file in a few seconds.
The conversion takes place on our servers. Your files will be automatically deleted shortly after the conversion.
Supported content
If the document is to be further edited, conversion to DOCX or ODT is recommended instead of PDF.
