File extension cvd is used for the drawing format in the Mac version of Canvas X Draw software, instead the .cvx files used on the Windows version. Otherwise the files are pretty much the same and serve same purpose.
Windows version of Canvas X can open the .cvd files from the Mac version but cannot save to this format.
Canvas X supports numerous graphics formats, so it is certainly possible to export .cvd files.

Clam AntiVirus is an antivirus program maintained by Cisco Talos. A cvd file contains ClamAV detection data, including virus signatures and related database information.
CVD files are part of the ClamAV database set and may be accompanied by other database files. The program and its database updater use these files internally to scan files and messages for malware.
The CVD format remains part of ClamAV's database distribution. On Microsoft Windows, users normally receive updated CVD files through the program's database-update process rather than creating them manually.
A cvd file is intended for use by Clam AntiVirus, not for direct viewing. Install the Windows version of ClamAV and place the file in its configured database directory only when following the program's documentation.
ClamAV reads CVD files automatically during scanning. There is no general-purpose viewer for the database's internal contents.
A CVD file cannot be sensibly converted to a document or another general-purpose file format. Its signatures and metadata are structured for use by ClamAV.
To obtain a usable database in another supported ClamAV database form, use ClamAV's database update tools rather than attempting to export or edit the CVD file.
