The AWG file extension identifies the native file format of Ability Draw, which is part of the Ability Office suite.

An AWG file can contain a collection of editable objects that make up a drawing, such as shapes and other vector graphic elements. The objects can be modified in Ability Draw without the loss of quality associated with resizing a raster image.

Ability Draw and Ability Office are available for Microsoft Windows. AWG is a proprietary format intended for storing Ability Draw projects and graphics.

How to open awg file?

Open an AWG file in Ability Draw. On Microsoft Windows, install or use Ability Office and open the file from Ability Draw's File menu or by double-clicking it if AWG files are associated with the program.

How to convert awg file?

Open the AWG file in Ability Draw and use its export or Save As commands to create a PDF or PowerPoint file. The available output formats depend on the installed version of Ability Draw.

Exporting preserves the finished drawing for use in more common programs, but it may not preserve all of the original AWG file's editable objects and drawing features.

ActiveWorlds object group file

File type category:
3d graphics, CAD-CAM-CAE file

Date updated: October 2, 2026

ActiveWorlds Inc. developed ActiveWorlds as an online 3D virtual world platform. The .awg format belongs to the platform's 3D content workflow.

An AWG file contains an object group - a collection of 3D objects treated as a unit for use in an ActiveWorlds environment. It is intended for use by ActiveWorlds rather than as a general-purpose 3D interchange format.

ActiveWorlds software is primarily associated with the Windows platform. The file's usefulness depends on the ActiveWorlds tools and environments that support object groups.

How to open awg file?

Open the file in ActiveWorlds on Windows. An AWG file is normally loaded or imported through the software's object or world-building functions rather than opened as a standalone document.

If ActiveWorlds is not installed, a general-purpose 3D application is unlikely to interpret the file correctly.

How to convert awg file?

AWG files are intended for use in ActiveWorlds and are not a general-purpose 3D interchange format.

To reuse the content elsewhere, open the object group in ActiveWorlds and export or recreate the individual objects using any export facilities available in the relevant ActiveWorlds tools.
