What is a .sda file?
A .sda file is a StarOffice Draw (version 5.x). This is an image format — a picture, drawing or graphic.
How to open a .sda file
- GIMP (free) and IrfanView open a very wide range of image formats, including obsolete ones.
- XnView MP is the best bet for unusual or legacy image types.
- Your operating system's built-in viewer may work for mainstream formats.
The registry records this extension against StarOffice Draw, so software from that family is the most likely match.
How to convert a .sda file
- Open it in GIMP or XnView and export as .png (lossless) or .jpg (smaller).
MIME type
When a .sda file travels over the web, servers label it with this MIME type:
application/vnd.stardivision.drawThe technical record
