The bm2 file extension is used by Boardmaker, software developed by Tobii Dynavox for creating symbol-based educational, communication, and activity boards.
A bm2 file contains a Boardmaker board, including its layout and interactive elements such as buttons and associated actions. Boards are native documents in Boardmaker and are intended to be used within that program.
Boardmaker is available for Microsoft Windows. The format is proprietary, and compatibility can depend on the Boardmaker version used to create or open the file.
Open the bm2 file in Boardmaker for Microsoft Windows. In Boardmaker, use the program's Open command and select the file.
If the file does not open, try a Boardmaker version compatible with the version that created it.
There is no general way to convert bm2 files to other formats. Open the file in Boardmaker and use any export or print options provided by that version if a non-interactive copy is sufficient.
Exporting or printing may preserve the board's appearance but not its interactive behavior.
