  • Archivierung von CAD-Zeichnungen
  • Austausch technischer Spezifikationen

Die Konvertierung von AW-Dateien, oft aus spezifischen CAD-Anwendungen stammend, in PDF ist in DACH-Regionen besonders relevant für die Einhaltung der GoBD (Grundsätze zur ordnungsmäßigen Führung und Aufbewahrung von Büchern, Aufzeichnungen und Unterlagen in elektronischer Form) bei der Archivierung.

About AW (APPLIX) to PDF Conversion

Short answer: yes, you can convert AW to PDF online for free, and quality is well preserved with the right settings. Just upload your .aw file to CocoConvert, pick PDF as the output, and click Convert. The whole process takes seconds.

Now for the details. AW is a widely used file format. PDF (Portable Document Format) preserves layout, fonts, and graphics across every device and operating system. Converting between these two formats lets you convert between formats quickly.

Your AW file is decoded and re-encoded as PDF. Converting AW to PDF maintains high quality with CocoConvert's optimised encoder settings.

CocoConvert runs entirely online — no software to install, no account to create. Your files are encrypted during upload (TLS), processed on isolated servers in Germany, and permanently deleted after 24 hours. It works in Chrome, Safari, Firefox, Edge, and all mobile browsers.
