Add your JSONFEED file
Drop one or more .jsonfeed files onto the converter above, or browse for them. They load into browser memory only — nothing is uploaded, so there is no size-based pricing and no server queue.
Converting a .jsonfeed font to .atom repackages the same glyphs and metrics for a different delivery target. Free, private, and validated — the file never leaves your browser.
Batch files can each use a different output. Nothing uploads for local conversions.
Working inputs include camera RAW, browser-local audio/video, PDF, CBZ/CBR comics, office documents, ebooks, markup, 3D models, structured text, images, and archives.Converting a .jsonfeed font to .atom repackages the same glyphs and metrics for a different delivery target. A .jsonfeed file is a JSON Feed: syndication expressed as a plain JSON object with a version, feed-level metadata and an items array, rather than as XML. It exists because most people building feed readers today would rather parse JSON than namespaced XML.
An .atom file is an Atom feed: the IETF-standardised syndication format, structured as a feed element containing entries, each with a globally unique id, a title, a timestamp and either content or a link to it. It was designed to fix the ambiguities RSS had frozen in place. For this route the practical draw is a real IETF standard with the ambiguities resolved rather than frozen in and unambiguous dates and explicit content typing — balanced against less widely supported than RSS despite being the better specification, which is worth knowing before you commit a large batch.
The practical trigger for this conversion is usually a mismatch: with .jsonfeed, far less widely supported than RSS or Atom. Switching to .atom buys you a real IETF standard with the ambiguities resolved rather than frozen in, which is why it is the better fit for publishing a feed where content type and identity must be unambiguous. Because the conversion runs locally, trying it costs nothing but a few seconds of compute on your own machine.
| Aspect | JSON Feed (.jsonfeed) | Atom feed (.atom) |
|---|---|---|
| Format type | Text-based — characters and structure, so there is no visual quality loss | Text-based — characters and structure, so there is no visual quality loss |
| How it stores data | the version field is a URL, which doubles as documentation and as an unambiguous version marker | every entry requires a globally unique id, which removes RSS's ambiguity about what identifies an item |
| Strongest at | feeds consumed by JavaScript clients that would otherwise need an XML parser | publishing a feed where content type and identity must be unambiguous |
| Weak spot | far less widely supported than RSS or Atom | less widely supported than RSS despite being the better specification |
| Metadata | feed and item fields — id, url, title, summary and publication date — are preserved. Attachments and typed HTML content are not represented in every target | feed and entry fields — id, title, updated timestamp, link and summary — are preserved. Typed content markup and namespaced extensions are not carried into simpler targets |
Drop one or more .jsonfeed files onto the converter above, or browse for them. They load into browser memory only — nothing is uploaded, so there is no size-based pricing and no server queue.
Select .atom in the output menu next to each file. The menu only offers targets this engine can genuinely produce, so if ATOM is selectable, the route is real and validated.
Press Convert. The font tables are parsed and rewritten locally with fonteditor-core; glyph outlines, hinting, and kerning survive the trip.
Each result is signature-checked before the download unlocks, so a failed encode can never masquerade as a valid ATOM file. Outputs keep the original filename with the .atom extension.
There is no visual quality to lose — jsonfeed is text-oriented and atom is text-oriented, so the question is structural fidelity. Text, ordering, and basic structure are preserved; complex layout, embedded objects, and styling beyond the target's model are simplified.
Yes — the .jsonfeed file is processed inside your browser tab and never uploaded. The font tables are parsed and rewritten locally with fonteditor-core; glyph outlines, hinting, and kerning survive the trip. Close the tab and the file is gone from memory.
Read by essentially every feed reader alongside RSS, and produced natively by GitHub, Blogger and several static site generators. Podcast clients generally expect RSS instead. Novus Convert parses it locally and converts to RSS and JSON Feed.
It depends on the content: every entry requires a globally unique id, which removes RSS's ambiguity about what identifies an item. Convert one representative file first and compare before batch-processing a large set.
In .jsonfeed, feed and item fields — id, url, title, summary and publication date — are preserved. Attachments and typed HTML content are not represented in every target. Re-encoding through the browser pipeline does not carry embedded metadata into the output, which doubles as a privacy scrub — check the exported file if you specifically need tags preserved.
Yes — the reverse route exists as a separate tool. Bear in mind that round-tripping .jsonfeed → .atom → .jsonfeed is not a perfect undo when any lossy step is involved; keep your original if fidelity matters.
