As an abbreviation for "Jw_cad for Windows," the .jww filename extension belongs to the Jw_cad Document (.jww) file type and format used by Jw_cad, a free Computer-Aided Design (CAD) program by J.Shimizu and Y.Tanaka. Jw_cad is a Microsoft Windows application designed to work with 2D (flat) technical drawings. Released in Japanese only, Jw_cad is mainly used in Japan.
Jw_cad drawings are saved using the program's own format, denoted with the .jww extension and recognized by the "JwwData._" signature in the file's header. The .jww file is a Jw_cad CAD project. The file itself is a compressed container for vector shapes, bitmap images, text, and other data. Legacy MS-DOS versions of Jw_cad used a different format and a different extension (.jwc) for their documents. On Windows, Jw_cad can natively read both .jwc and .jww files. As the JWW file format specification has been published by the developers of Jw_cad, Jw_cad drawings (.jww) can be opened/imported by several other CAD applications, in addition to Jw_cad itself. Also, there are converters available to translate .jww drawings to other CAD formats.
