What is MCD file?
The MCD file extension is associated with VectorWorks, a powerful 3D design software used by architects, engineers, and landscape designers. VectorWorks allows users to generate three-dimensional designs that can be used for professional projects in various industries. The MCD file format is a specialized binary format produced by the application and is used to save and store complex 3D models, technical drawings, and other associated data. [ ⏩ ] MCD file extension
What is MCS file?
The MCS (.MCS) file extension is the most widely used file format of Mathcad, an engineering software application. Mathcad is a powerful numerical computation, engineering problem-solving, and graphical calculation tool used for creating and documenting engineering calculations. .MCS files are a type of worksheet containing Mathcad calculations, equations, text, and images for projects and problems.

How to convert the file from MCD to MCS?
To successfully convert the MCD file to MCS, you should install one of the applications from the list. After installing the software, open the program and select the file you want to convert (file-name.MCD). The next step is to select the target format from the list, in this case MCS (usually converters allow you to convert to several different formats, so check out their features - maybe one of the available formats will suit you more than MCS).
What is a file conversion?
A data conversion is normally an automated process to some extent. The effect of the operation of one program is automatically the input product of another application. If that does not happen we need to help the process a little bit and convert the file on our own, e.g. MCD to MCS. To obtain a matched structure of the data, it is necessary to use an appropriate converter.
Program for converting MCD files to MCS files is a kind of a "binary code translator" compensating for the differences in the code or translating it in such a way so that another application could use it. For us, as users, the visible change will be only another file extension. (After converting the file, it will be the extension MCS, while before this step we had the MCD file). For the programs, the difference is on a much higher level – either the application will be able to open a new MCS file, or not.
