What is a ZDP file
How to open a ZDP file

Without proper software you will receive a Windows message "How do you want to open this file?" or "Windows cannot open this file" or a similar Mac/iPhone/Android alert. If you cannot open your ZDP file correctly, try to right-click or long-press the file. Then click "Open with" and choose an application. You can also display a ZDP file directly in the browser:.

ZDP file format:
The file format, which is the arrangement and type of data in a file, determines which program can open the file. The file format can be determined based on the file extension and the signature (the first few characters of a file). File extension, signature and file format must match; otherwise errors will occur when the file is opened. So a detailed analysis of a file is vital in order to determine the format and the associated program. Our examination of the ZDP files comes to the following conclusion:
The ZDP file extension is not found very often and is primarily used by a single program. However, the following two file formats are common:
- 90% of all ZDP files are based on the Microsoft Compound File format, known also as OLE2 Compound Document format or Composite Document File format. This file format is used by previous Microsoft Office programs and other Windows programs and stores the data in complex containers and sections. The Compound Document format is always starting with the bytes D0 CF 11 E0 A1 B1 1A E1. The app name of ZDP files is DesignPro, Avery DesignPro, Avery Zweckform DesignPro or Label Factory Deluxe. The internal containers are called Contents and SummaryInformation. The file size is in the range of 7 KB to 1 MB. This file type was primarily in use more than 10 years ago. These files can be linked to label, labels, card, document, christmas, business, family and cards, and usually contain person-related data.
- 4% of all ZDP files save the data in JetDB file format. The JetDB is a database format often used by Microsoft Access and Visual Basic programs. JET is short for Joint Engine Technology. These files are binary files, so they do not contain text, but only cryptic characters. The files are often between 120 KB and 1 MB in size. The keywords Standard are typical for these files. These files are attributed to passwords.
All other ZDP files (6%) have different formats. Just click the "Choose your .zdp file to analyze" button on this page to find out what your ZDP file is.
