Convert CWK to PDF

The CWK file extension stands for ClarisWorks Document, specifically used for word processing documents within ClarisWorks (later AppleWorks). Apple rebranded ClarisWorks to AppleWorks after acquiring Claris in 1998 and discontinued it in 2004. These CWK files have since been largely replaced by formats like PAGES in Apple's iWork suite. Opening CWK word processing files now requires older versions of Apple's Pages.

The Portable Document Format (PDF) is a file extension created by Adobe Systems in 1993 to facilitate document exchange across different systems. PDFs preserve the formatting of source documents, making them ideal for sharing text, images, and graphics in a consistent manner. Commonly used for forms, manuals, e-books, and reports, PDF files are platform-independent, ensuring the content appears the same on various devices and operating systems. This versatility has solidified its status as a standard in digital documentation, enhancing both compatibility and security in file sharing.
