What is an NCT file?

NCT files mostly belong to JetDB, COVER EDITOR. Your NCT file can serve in two distinct ways. It may be a building simulation data file that uses the JetDB format. In this case, the file holds building information for simulation programs, sometimes known as a DesignBuilder Simulation Data file. It can also be a Nero cover template file from the COVER EDITOR range. In the latter use, the file often employs an XML structure to store layout and design details.
Key uses include:
  • Building Simulation – Contains structured data for simulation setups and design parameters.
  • Cover Template – Holds cover design project details for Nero Cover Designer. More info can be found at NCH Software or Nero.
    • How to open and view them:
  • Use the native application that created the file (DesignBuilder or COVER EDITOR).
  • If the file is in XML format, a text editor can display its contents.
    • FilExt.com note: Identify the file origin to choose the correct software.
