IDpack File Extensions
IDpack uses proprietary file extensions. File extensions identify the type of file to which they are attached. All programs and almost all data files use extensions, which are separated from the filename by a dot. For example, LETTER.DOC is a Word document, NOTEPAD.EXE is a text editing program that comes with Windows. By default, on recent versions of Windows, extensions are hidden and only the icon is shown to the left of the filename.
Here is the list of all the extensions IDpack uses. These files are supported only by IDpack.

Note
If you have created a new Paper Format (cprd.idr) with IDpack Designer, and are sharing the IDpack Project (IDP) on a network, you must copy the IDR file from the IDpack Element directory onto all the computers. If you don't, you will not be able to open the IDP file.
IDpack built-in database (extension .IDD) is no longer supported by IDpack Element.
if you are using this database type there is a conversion tool within IDpack Designer that will import your data into a Microsoft Access database.
