The pstpl file extension is associated with LimeSurvey, an open-source survey application. These files belong to the application's template system rather than being standalone survey data files.

A pstpl file can contain HTML, placeholders and other template-related content used to control the presentation of survey pages. LimeSurvey loads the appropriate files from a survey template when it generates the survey interface.

How to open pstpl file?

Use LimeSurvey to load and use a pstpl file as part of a survey template. The file can also be inspected or edited as text with a plain-text or source-code editor, but changes should be made within a copy of the LimeSurvey template.

How to convert pstpl file?

A pstpl file is not normally converted to another file format. LimeSurvey may be capable of exporting pstpl files to other formats. If a template is being moved to a different template system, its markup and placeholders generally need to be adapted manually rather than exported through a standard converter.
