Don't Upload Confidential Documents to Free Cloud Converters
Ami Pro archives are usually old business records: signed contracts, litigation files, board minutes, personnel matters, and patient or client correspondence.
The Risk
Online converters turn reading an old document into an untracked third-party data transfer — no retention terms, no processing location, no audit trail.
The Scale Problem
Uploading one file at a time does not work for a departmental archive of thousands of .SAM documents spread across nested folders.
The Application Gap
Ami Pro is long discontinued, Word has never had a .SAM import filter, and LibreOffice has no Ami Pro filter at all — so nothing on a modern PC opens these files.
You converted the archive. Now search it.
Standard converts Lotus Ami Pro documents locally on this PC. Plus unlocks Conversion Library — a private library of the documents you converted. Search DOCX, PDF, Markdown, HTML, RTF, and TXT. Add tags and knowledge maps. Open previews. Same installer. Unlock with a Plus key. Nothing is uploaded.
- Full-text search across converted DOCX, PDF, Markdown, HTML, RTF, and TXT on this PC
- Tags and knowledge maps for related Ami Pro documents
- Built-in previews — Word, PDF, and more
Plus add-on $29.95 if you already have Standard. Standard + Plus from the start is $69.90.
Professional Ami Pro Recovery, Total Data Sovereignty
Built for legal, government, engineering, academic, and IT teams who can't compromise on confidentiality or fidelity
Native .SAM parser — plots, equations, and .STY
Reads Ami Pro from the [ver] header on down. Charts and figures come through as pictures; formulas as pictures you can read and as LaTeX you can reuse. Companion .STY style sheets next to the .SAM are applied automatically. How we recover them
No Ami Pro Needed
Don't rebuild a Windows 98 virtual machine just to read old documents. Ami Pro Converter is fully standalone — no Ami Pro or Lotus Word Pro required, no Office add-ins, no third-party runtimes. It handles Ami Pro 1.2, 2.x, and 3.x, including OS/2 and DOS-era files. Install and convert.
Local Processing
Ami Pro Converter works where your Ami Pro documents already are. Files stay on your machine, behind your firewall — suitable for legal privilege, GDPR, HIPAA, and contractual confidentiality obligations that prohibit cloud uploads. It runs on air-gapped PCs too.
Bulk, Explorer, and Watch Folders
Point Ami Pro Converter at entire folder trees and convert thousands of documents in minutes. Right-click a .SAM in Windows Explorer for a focused quick convert, or watch a migration drop zone so new files convert automatically.
