Thanks for all the replies. I am talking about STL-files in the EBU-format (European Broadcast Union). I tried to open as notepad but the words are "scattered". It looks like a "salad". Can I open with any programs where the words would be the same as in the STL files? Thank you very much! | |

I think you need a subtitling software and then save as txt. This is only option I can think of. Sorry | | |

@catherine - Jose explained the other things. Maybe I am not clear because I am not English. Anyway, I have EBU STL files (That files are OK) but my clients want to have it in txt files with no "mass". If I open that file (EBU STL as notepad it is like a "salad" - no spaces, some words are missing etc.), and the clients declined it of course. So, it has to be everything in the same structure as if I open ebu stl file in an appropr... See more @catherine - Jose explained the other things. Maybe I am not clear because I am not English.
