Filenor

Türkçe · English

A private file and media converter. Everything runs on your own computer. Nothing is uploaded, no account is needed, no internet connection is required to convert.

Features

• Convert images (JPG, PNG, WEBP, AVIF, GIF, BMP, TIFF, ICO, HEIC, camera RAW, SVG), audio, video, GIF, PDF ↔ images/text, Office documents, sheets and slides (through LibreOffice) and fonts (TTF/OTF/WOFF/WOFF2).
• PDF and image tools: merge, split, pick pages, rotate, shrink, lock/unlock PDFs, OCR, shrink images and strip metadata, trim audio/video.
• Safe by design: every conversion goes through a hidden work folder and never overwrites an existing file (name (1).ext). External programs run in their own process group and stop on cancel or timeout.
• Batch queue with drag & drop, per-file progress and cancel.
• One-click tool install: missing helpers (ffmpeg, LibreOffice, poppler, qpdf, Tesseract …) are installed from Settings → Install — with apt on Debian/Ubuntu and winget on Windows. Formats whose tool is missing are greyed out instead of failing.
• Command line: filenor-cli uses the same engine.
• Dark and light theme, Turkish and English.

Install

Download from the Releases page.

Debian / Ubuntu

sudo apt install ./filenor_*_all.deb
filenor

Needs Debian 12+ or Ubuntu 24.04+ (Python 3.11+, GTK 3). Dependencies are pulled in by apt.

Windows

Run Filenor-<version>-setup.exe (per-user, no administrator rights needed) or unzip Filenor-<version>-windows-x64.zip and start Filenor.exe.

Helper programs such as ffmpeg and LibreOffice are not bundled (their licences differ from Filenor's). Open Settings and press Install missing tools; Filenor installs them with winget (Windows 10 1809+ / 11).

Build

packaging/debian/build-deb.sh 2.0.0 dist     # .deb

Windows packages are built by GitHub Actions (MSYS2 + PyInstaller + Inno Setup); see .github/workflows/build.yml and packaging/windows/.

Tests: python3 -m unittest discover -s tests (UI tests need GTK and a display, e.g. xvfb-run).

History

Version 1 was a single-file customtkinter script for Windows; it is kept as legacy/Filenor_v1.py. Version 2 is a rewrite on GTK 3 with a shared engine for Linux and Windows. See CHANGELOG.md.
