Sorry to bother the fedora list, but I'm not sure where to ask.
I
have a trial transcript in .ptx format I need to look at. Does
anybody know of any tool in Fedora/Linux that can read these?
I think you need to sharpen your search-foo. :-)
Summary - probably a text file viewable in any text editor, even less.

Your PTX file may instead be an E-Transcript file. These files are
often used to store courtroom hearing transcripts, and can be in either
the PTX format or in a self-contained EXE file; the former is normally
used so that the file can be sent over email (EXE files are usually
blocked by email servers).
When in the PTX format, E-Transcript files can be opened with
E-Transcript Manager or for free, though in read-only mode, with
E-Transcript Viewer. Since they're probably text-only files, you might
also find a text editor like Notepad++ useful in reading the PTX file.
The similar .PTZ E-Transcript Bundle files can be opened with these
programs too.
