PaperPort uses IX files to store saved search index information. The data helps PaperPort locate and search content in documents in its document-management system.
An IX file is an auxiliary PaperPort file and is normally used together with the other files in a PaperPort document repository. It is not intended as a general-purpose document or interchange format.
This format is associated with the Microsoft Windows version of PaperPort. PaperPort creates and maintains the file as part of its search features, so users generally do not need to edit it manually.
Open the file through PaperPort on Microsoft Windows. Start PaperPort and use its search features; the program can read the IX file as part of its document data.
An IX file usually does not contain a document that can be viewed independently, so opening it in a text editor or another document program will not provide useful results.
There is generally no useful direct conversion for a PaperPort IX file. It is a PaperPort search index, not a document format intended for export.
To move the useful content, open the associated documents in PaperPort and export or save those documents in a suitable format. Search information can normally be recreated by allowing PaperPort to index the documents again.

Pidgin is open-source instant messaging software that supports multiple messaging services. An IX file belongs to the application's settings or supporting configuration data.
The file may contain information used by Pidgin to preserve application options or other internal settings. Its contents are intended for use by Pidgin and are not normally meant to be edited as a document.
IX files are associated with the Linux and Unix versions of Pidgin. The format is uncommon and is tied to the software rather than being a general interchange format.
Open the IX file with Pidgin on Linux or Unix. In normal use, Pidgin reads the file from its expected configuration location rather than opening it through a file manager.
If Pidgin does not recognise the file, do not rename or edit it manually. Make a backup first, because changing an internal settings file can prevent the application from using the stored settings correctly.
The IX file is an internal Pidgin settings file, so it is not intended for conversion to a document format.
To move the settings, use Pidgin's own configuration or account-management features where available, or recreate the settings in another installation. Keep a backup of the original file before making changes.
