Convert CDDZ to CDD

Understanding cddz and cdd file formats

CDDZ and CDD are file formats associated with ConceptDraw DIAGRAM, a popular diagramming and vector graphics software. The CDDZ format is a compressed version of the CDD file, which is the native, uncompressed project file used by ConceptDraw DIAGRAM. Both formats store diagrams, flowcharts, and other visual data, but CDDZ files are optimized for reduced file size and easier sharing.

Why convert cddz to cdd?

Converting a CDDZ file to CDD may be necessary if you need to access the raw, uncompressed project data for advanced editing, troubleshooting, or compatibility with older versions of ConceptDraw DIAGRAM that may not support the compressed format.

How to convert cddz to cdd

The most reliable way to convert CDDZ to CDD is by using ConceptDraw DIAGRAM itself. Follow these steps:

1. Open ConceptDraw DIAGRAM on your computer.
2. Go to File → Open and select your CDDZ file.
3. Once the file is open, go to File → Save As.
4. In the save dialog, choose CDD as the file type and select your desired location.
5. Click Save to complete the conversion.
