Some .brd files has ascii code inside, while others seems to have garbage.

The image attached shows two Apple .brd files comparison.

One of them you can search for text, (WS_KBD_ONOFF_L) but the other one you can not search anything.

Is there a program or a method to convert .brd files?

Regards.

I have found a method to extract text from .brd and .bdv, so I can search for correct signals names when working with boardview programs. (sometimes names in schematic don't match in boardview program)

I have used Olly Debug to dump memory content in R33-MB-B.bdv file.

I will be glad if it helps to someone else.
