File type: Settings, options, themes or skins file
A .nlpd file is a data synchronization profile used by Navicat for SQLite.
The file stores the settings for a configured synchronization task rather than the SQLite database itself.

The NLPD file extension belongs to Navicat, a database management tool from PremiumSoft. An NLPD file contains a saved data synchronization profile for Navicat for SQLite.
The profile preserves the configuration of a synchronization task so it can be loaded and used again in Navicat. It is a settings file, not a database file and not a copy of the data being synchronized.
NLPD files are associated with Navicat for SQLite and the SQLite features of Navicat Premium on Microsoft Windows, Linux/Unix and macOS. They are used by the corresponding Navicat editions rather than as general-purpose files for other database software.
Open an NLPD file in the Navicat edition that created it. In Navicat for SQLite or Navicat Premium, use the data synchronization feature's command for loading or opening a saved profile, then review or run the synchronization task.
Navicat for SQLite and Navicat Premium provide support on Microsoft Windows, Linux/Unix and macOS. An NLPD file is not intended to be opened meaningfully in a text editor or by the operating system itself.
An NLPD file is a Navicat synchronization profile, so it normally has no useful standalone conversion format. It does not contain the synchronized database contents.
To use the settings elsewhere, load the profile in a compatible Navicat edition or recreate the synchronization task manually. Export or convert the database data separately if that is the actual goal.
