The native file format for CorelDRAW is .cdr . A file saved in CorelDRAW 13 can easily be opened by modern versions of CorelDRAW. However, the reverse is not true. Modern versions utilize features and formatting structures that version 13 cannot interpret. If you are collaborating with users on newer software, they must use the "Save As" function and manually select "Version 13.0" from the version dropdown menu to ensure backward compatibility.

Highly intuitive with Docker palettes and customizable context menus.
