What Is an XDW File?
In most cases, XDW files refer to files that used to be generated from Fuji Xerox DocuCentre scanners and copiers. The XDW files contain images that have been scanned or copied by the devices and can include images, text, and links to Web pages and other documents.
The documents recorded by the Xerox device could only be opened with specific software - DocuWorks or DocuWorks Viewer Light programs from Fuji Xerox.
On the other hand, different software may use files with the same extension for different types of data. If you export a Dyalog APL workspace, the filename's extension will also be XDW.
What Is a PDF File?
PDF is a file format that can present documents, including text formatting and images, in a manner independent of application software, hardware, and operating systems.
A PDF file usually contains a variety of content besides flat text and graphics including logical structuring elements, interactive elements such as annotations and form-fields, layers, rich media, three-dimensional objects using U3D or PRC, and various other data formats.
