Mapinfo Universal Translator Download

Start MapInfo Professional and then launch the Universal Translator (also called the FME Quick Translator). (These screenshots are from MapInfo Professional 15.0 32-bit but the basic process is identical in the 64-bit versions of MapInfo Pro) Here is the FME Quick Translator interface (also called the Universal Translator) Click on the icon 'translate Data' at top left or go to File>Translate Data The file(s) to be translated, and the current format is selected at top of dialog. Here is a translation dialog from.tab to.shp ready to go Once OK is selected, the translation takes place and the translated files will be found in the designated folder. A LOG file is also generated that will indicate success or failure and (usually) why there were errors. Please forward this log to Tech Support for troubleshooting translation errors.

Hi John What are you trying to achieve? Sounds like you are trying to feed the UT a TAB file that has an associated raster file. As far as I am aware the UT is not designed to deal with raster formats or the TAB files associated with raster files that hold the projection and georeferencing info. All you need to do to get it into Arc is open the raster file in MapInfo and check the projection and points used for georeferencing noting coordinate info (or read by opening TAB file with notepad) then regeoreference the raster file in Arc using that info. If you do not have Arc and need to pass on to someone simply give them the raster file plus the data relating to projection and the points to be used for georeferencing the raster file.
