The 97 file extension is associated with Creo Elements/Pro, also known as Pro/Engineer, a CAD/CAM solution for Microsoft Windows developed by PTC.
A 97 file contains versioned data from Creo Elements/Pro. The numeric suffix identifies stored versioned data associated with a Creo file rather than a separate document type.
Open a 97 file with Creo Elements/Pro (Pro/Engineer) on Microsoft Windows. Because it contains versioned Creo data, it may need to be opened together with the related design files from within the Creo application.
A 97 file is not normally converted independently because it stores versioned Creo data rather than a standalone exchange document.
Open the related design in Creo Elements/Pro, then use the software's save or export commands to create a supported CAD format.
