| CorelDRAW Template Format | Corel | Settings Files |
The CDT file extension is associated with the graphics suite of CorelDRAW. A CDT file represents an image template for CorelDRAW's vector capabilities and downloadable content (such as clip art images, clip art objects, and special effects).
CDT files contain a starting canvas or palette in which CorelDRAW objects, like text, shapes, pictures and logos, can be placed. They can include embedded photographs, logos or other graphics that maintain their Vector format inside CorelDRAW.
Advanced Information on CDT Files
CDT files are based on the JPG format, but with all the additional information that is needed to provide vector features. This includes some meta-data information such as labels and keywords associated with the various components of the template. The advantage in using CDT files is that these features can be easily shared with other users through the software’s data exchange feature.
Additionally, CDT files can be reused as templates, making it easy to save time when creating a similar product. Other compatible file formats include CDR (Corel Draw), AI (Adobe Illustrator), PSD (Adobe Photoshop), EPS (Encapsulated PostScript), WMF (Windows Metafile) and SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics).

After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .CDT) with the new application. If this does not happen, we can help the system a bit by selecting the software for it, which it should always use to open files with the .CDT extension.
When choosing the software we can select the system to use this software every time.
Remember!
Using it for the first time it is good to check whether the .CDT file opened in the application can be read by us and opens in a way that allows us to use it. If everything is in order, select this option the next time you open a file with the .CDT extension. However, if the file has not opened correctly, we have to look for a different software, with which we can open files with the .CDT extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .CDT file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.
Other instructions
If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .CDT file has not meet your expectations, you can try searching other websites. But remember to avoid downloading programs "that can open any file". These applications not only have very limited functionality, but may also expose you to expense tens of dollars when purchasing a license.
In the vast majority of cases you will find the program dedicated to support the .CDT file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .CDT file) will be extended to the maximum.
It is also good to check
- if the .CDT file has no errors
- or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
