What is a .LRX file?
LRX is a DRM-protected Sony BBeB e-book.
- Did you know
- LRX was the encrypted form of Sony’s early e-book format.
- LRX is the encrypted member of Sony’s BBeB (Broad Band eBook) family, alongside the readable LRS source and the compiled LRF.
- Sony retired its BBeB formats when it switched its e-book store and Reader devices to the open EPUB standard.
- What Analyser reads
- Identify and read more document, ebook and publishing files: Scribus (.sla/.scd version, pages, fonts), MS Works and Windows Write, Word 97 templates (.dot), StarOffice 5.x binary docs, Shanda Bambook and Sony BBeB (.lrf/.lrx) ebooks, FrameMaker, document templates and legacy PageMaker.
- Depth of analysis
- .LRX is an identification-grade format: Analyser recognises it from its bytes and decodes the header metadata it carries, rather than opening it in a full viewer. Formats that do get a full viewer are marked "Full" on the formats page.
- Open a .LRX file
- Drag a .LRX file onto the Analyser home page (or tap to pick one). It is identified entirely in your browser - nothing is uploaded, there is no account, and it works offline once installed.
