Microsoft FrontPage was a Microsoft Windows application for creating and managing web pages. Its themes provided a coordinated visual design for a website.
An fptheme file contains information used by FrontPage to apply a theme to a site. It is part of the FrontPage site's files rather than a general-purpose document.
FrontPage and the fptheme format are obsolete. The file is therefore mainly encountered in older FrontPage websites and is not normally used by current web-authoring software.
Open the website or project containing the file with Microsoft FrontPage on a compatible Microsoft Windows installation. The file is normally used by FrontPage as part of a site's theme and may not provide useful content when opened by itself.
The file is not normally converted on its own. To preserve the design, open the original site in Microsoft FrontPage, save or publish the resulting web pages, and recreate the theme manually in a current web-authoring tool.
