• Cavnas is the program that creates .cvs files. ACD Systems developed and distributes Canvas.
  
  

Identification

• A file with the .cvs file extension is known as a Canvas drawing.
  
  

Function

• A file with the .cvs file extension contains an image or graphic. The .cvs file extension serves as a marker to your computer, signaling that the file is accessible only with Canvas.
  
  

Features

• The image contained in a .cvs file are sometimes raster images, meaning it is made up of tiny dots called pixels. Other .cvs files contain vector images, which consist of geometric shapes and lines.
  
  

Systems

• Canvas and .cvs files operate on both Mac OS X and Windows-based computers.
  
  

Considerations

• Version 4 of Canvas was the last version that saved drawings with the .cvs file extension. Newer versions use the .cnv extension, but are also able to open .cvs files.
