I do beer signs for a living. Sometimes I like to import other coreldraw files into my current work to take designs off of them, such as a curve or a portion of text. I then delete the unused parts. The problem is that whenever I do this, it makes the save file huge!
You can test this. Open an empty coreldraw file. Drag a few .cdr's into it. Delete everything you imported. Save the empty file. It will be the size of all those .cdr's combined!
Is this a bug or something I can fix?
Hello Shadowing; A man after my own hart. ( BEER ) I don't know why you are having that problem, BUT you can try grouping what you want to save and using the "Save As" and and select the"Selected only.

You may still have styles or color styles being in the 'blank' cdr file.
Doing that works. Not as easy as ctrl-s. Can you guys reproduce this? Each service pack I hope it gets fixed but it doesn't.
I don't use styles or color styles.
You can put a icon on the menu to go to Save As, and I'd think there is a macro to do it in one click.
