Adobe Extension Data Markup Language (EDML) document file

File type category:
Document file

Date updated: September 24, 2026

EDML is a markup format created for Adobe Dreamweaver. An EDML document contains structured extension data that Dreamweaver can use to register or configure parts of an extension.

These files belong to the extension infrastructure and are normally distributed with the related Dreamweaver extension. The exact data depends on the extension, but the file is intended to be read by Dreamweaver rather than edited as a finished web page or other end-user document.

Adobe Dreamweaver is available for Microsoft Windows and Apple macOS, although EDML is a legacy extension format and may be encountered mainly in older or existing Dreamweaver extensions.

How to open edml file?

Use a compatible installation of Adobe Dreamweaver on Windows or macOS to use an EDML file as part of its associated extension. Opening the file by itself in Dreamweaver may not display useful content.

To inspect the contents, open the file in a plain-text or XML-aware editor. Avoid changing its markup unless the associated Dreamweaver extension requires it.

How to convert edml file?

EDML files are configuration or support documents for Dreamweaver extensions, so they do not usually have a meaningful conversion to another document format. If the data is needed elsewhere, it can be read or manually recreated as XML, but that may remove the behavior expected by the Dreamweaver extension.
