File extension draw is mainly related to Draw, a drawing program for Acorn/Risc operating system.
The .draw file represents vector drawing similar to Windows WMF and SVG vector-based format.
Extensions used to map this file come in two varieties. The first is a word describing the file - in this case DRAW which is DRW in the 8.3 parlance.
The second way of mapping the file is to use a literal form of the RISC OS filetype system. In this, three bytes provide a range of possible file types from &000 to &FFF (there are no extensions, just "type" metadata). In this case, Acorn DrawFiles would be given the extension AFF, because the file is type &AFF, or 0xAFF, $HAFF.
You can open .draw files in Acorn/Risc.
Vector drawings can usually be converted to other vector formats, or even exported as bitmaps.
