How to open SFP file?

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the SFP file icon you want to open. If the operating system has an appropriate application to support it and there is also an association between the file and the program, the file should be opened.
Step 1. Install Web Jetadmin software

Programs to open SFP file
Remember to download programs supporting SFP files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Web Jetadmin software with SFP files
If, despite the installed application, the SFP file does not start in the Web Jetadmin software application, you must create a file association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. The window will show, among other things, the type of the file and the information by which the program is used to launch the file. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. It may happen that in the next window there will be no appropriate program - however, this can be corrected with the "Browse" option where you should manually indicate the program location. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the Web Jetadmin software application as the default for handling the SFP file.
Step 3. Update Web Jetadmin software to the latest version
If, however, after binding Web Jetadmin software with Soft Font Printer Format there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the SFP file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the SFP file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file SFP or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected SFP files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of SFP file may not always be supported by the latest software version. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair SFP file corruption.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted SFP files can be used by the device on which they were encrypted, on any other device it is required to have the appropriate cryptographic key and decrypt the file before its recovery.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. It is best to move SFP to a different directory.
This problem usually affects more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file SFP to close. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If this does not work either, restart the device.
