What is a .PDWR file?
The .PDWR file extension is used for a type of document called a ProntoDoc for Word Conventional Document. This document works with a special tool that adds extra features to Microsoft Word, called ProntoDoc for Word, or PDW for short. PDW is a plug-in, which means it's a small software addition that helps Microsoft Word do more things.
When you use ProntoDoc for Word, you can create document templates. These templates are like blueprints or patterns for documents you make often. The .PDWR file contains one of these templates. Inside the template, there are spaces called data fields. These spaces get filled in automatically with information from a database. This means you don't have to type in the information by hand every time, which saves a lot of work.
People use .PDWR files to make sure that the documents they create with ProntoDoc for Word look right and have the correct information in them. After setting up a .PDWR file, you can turn it into different types of files like .DOCX (a common Microsoft Word document), .PDF (a file that looks the same on all devices and can be shared easily), or .XPS (a format similar to PDF, but created by Microsoft).
To open a .PDWR file, you need to have Microsoft Word and the ProntoDoc for Word plug-in installed on your computer. Once you have these, you can open the .PDWR file in Microsoft Word, and it will work with the ProntoDoc for Word plug-in to show you the document template with all the data fields filled in.
