Dear Wendy,

text files should be ok with MorphoJ if the correct number of landmarks has been taken in all specimens - it is even default option for importing datasets. I cannot remember it exactly now, but morphoJ also has an "Export datasets" option in the "File" menu, you could try what file formats it offers for export.
As for PAST, this program also reads .txt format, but column separators have to be blank spaces (" ") and missing data must be coded as "." It should be able to deal with Excel sheets, as well, which can be easily obtained from the original text files by opening and saving them in Excel.
last not least I would have a look at the "shapes" package in R, I could imagine that it might contain various commands for file format transformation.

All the best,
Ruth

Hi,

I have a prn file, that I can also save as a text file, or use the all
files option. I need to be able to convert this file into a TPS or NTS
file so that I can open and run it in tpsRELW. Does anyone know if how
and whether this is even possible? Or if anyone happens to know how to
convert it into a file that would open in PAST and MorphoJ that would
be great.

Many Thanks,

Wendy den Boer
