The .cw file extension is associated with CardWorks, a business card design utility from NCH Software for Microsoft Windows.
A .cw file stores a business card template, including the design and other information needed to create a card. It is used as a source template rather than as the finished printed card.
This is a CardWorks-specific template format and is intended to be opened and edited in CardWorks.
Open the .cw file in CardWorks on Microsoft Windows. CardWorks can use the template to create a new business card for editing and printing.
A .cw file is a template, so direct conversion to another document format is not generally meaningful. Open it in CardWorks and use the resulting design to produce a finished, printable business card.
