Ovation Pro is desktop-publishing software developed by David Pilling. A CDC file is an Ovation version 1 style sheet that defines reusable formatting for documents, rather than containing a document's main text and graphics.
The style sheet is used as part of an Ovation document workflow, where its stored formatting can be applied to document content. It is a legacy Ovation format associated with the Microsoft Windows edition of the software.
CDC files are not general-purpose text documents and are not commonly used outside Ovation. Compatibility with newer Ovation Pro releases depends on their support for version 1 style sheets.
Open the CDC file with Ovation Pro on Microsoft Windows. Use Ovation Pro's style-sheet or document commands to load it; the file is not intended to be opened as a standalone text document.
If the file does not load, an Ovation Pro release compatible with Ovation version 1 may be required.
Open the CDC file in a compatible version of Ovation Pro and transfer or recreate its formatting in a style sheet supported by the target version.
Because a CDC file contains formatting definitions rather than a complete document, it is not converted directly to a document format.
