Setting Auto-Preserve preferences

You can set the program to always save a copy of your original (unedited) images in a clearly labeled backup folder. This feature essentially creates "digital negatives," which can be accessed whenever you want to work with images in their original state.

To	Do the following
Create copies of original images automatically when you first save them	In the dialog box that appears after you click Save, choose Yes - Do this every time. The original (unedited) image is copied to a Corel Auto-Preserve subfolder, which is automatically created within the folder in which you are saving the image.
Reopen the original image	In the Open dialog box or the Navigation palette to browse to the Corel Auto-Preserve subfolder that contains a copy of the original image. The Corel Auto-Preserve subfolder resides within the same folder in which original image was first saved.
Avoid creating copies of original images	In the dialog box that appears after you click Save, choose No - Save my images without preserving the original.
