Exporting files

You can use the File Export command to export files to a variety of bitmap and vector file formats that can be used in other applications. For example, you can export a file to the Adobe Illustrator (AI) or JPG format. You can also export a file so that it is optimized for use with a suite of office productivity applications, such as Microsoft Office or Corel WordPerfect Office.

When you are exporting a file, the original file is left open in the drawing window in its existing format.

You can use the File Save as command to save files to various vector formats. After you save a file to a different format, the saved file is displayed immediately in the drawing window. It is recommended that you first save the file as a Corel DESIGNER file because some file formats do not support all of the features found in a Corel DESIGNER file.
