Renaming GST files to GSD will work. Silhouette Studio will read GST files, my Online Converter will convert GST to SVG files without renaming, and other software packages will read GSD files.

Thank you for the orders Louisa  :). I never intended anyone to purchase more than 1000 conversion credits at once, so I have added another 1000 to your account, and for identifying the issue in the Extractor.

Ian,
This software is amazing, and a time saver, both the studio library extractor, and the desktop interface. They work seamlessly to do what it would take months to do, in a few short minutes, and a few short steps.
The extractor is quick and easy to use, extracting the whole of the library, and everything I have purchased. The online converter is very quick converting just over 2000 files in 15 minutes, this means that I now have access to the designs I have bought and paid for outside of the silhouette studio software for use on other machines.
The FCM converter included in the desktop means that any fcm files can now be used in machines which are capable of more delicate and intricate cuts, without a loss of detail, and have extracted flawlessly.
All in all a perfect piece of software to do a job that would take months and months to do. The fact that it produces a visual thumbnail for reference on the studio files, and has the text file describing designer and where to get help on the studio extracted files is an absolute godsend.
All I can say is THANK YOU!!!!

If you want to use any of this for promotional purposes then you can, because you are an absolute star!!!!!!

Thank you for your review :), I'm glad that you can use the files with whatever machine you want to (although some designers and manufacturers may not want you to). Rather than copy and paste your review directly, I will at some point paste the link on the Ideas R Us Software website.

Most of the files in the Silhouette Store are not that complex, and will convert very quickly (but it's also dependent on how many others are using the online converter).

If you were to load a library file and save it in 10 seconds, 4300 files would take 43,000 seconds, or nearly 12 hours.

I know that a number of Converter users are converting FCM files from the Tattered Lace ScanNCut USB's to SVG, but I don�t know what machines they will be using. The FCM file format is the simplest of the entire file format readers/converters that I have written, the Studio file format the most complex. My Cutter Controller also reads FCM files, and will cut/plot to a number of high-end cutters, as well as the low end Cricuts.

Don't forget to check the report files for both the Extractor and Desktop Interface to see what hasn't been converted or extracted correctly.

The fix for this is in the Studio Library File Extractor Free V1.0.31 release, available for download from http://ideas-r-us-software.uk/Downloads.aspx#StudioLibraryFileExtractor
