Save
Selecting Save saves the active file in its current form.
The standard Windows Save as dialog box appears when a drawing is saved for the first time. Use it to define a folder and a name for your file.
Click Save to create the file. The new file name with a .idr extension is displayed in the window’s title bar. It also appears in the Arbortext IsoDrawWindow menu.
You can save any subsequent changes to your illustration by selecting the Save command at regular intervals. The dialog box no longer appears.
You can specify the following options when saving a file:
Format
This option can only be accessed if you select the Save as command.
Using the Save command will create a file in Arbortext IsoDraw format with an .idr extension. This file can only be read using version 7.0 and above of Arbortext IsoDraw. The Save as command allows you to save in formats used by older versions of Arbortext IsoDraw.

If you use CGM as the standard format, you will create a CGM file during saving which is based on the settings defined in the preferences. (See information on the CGM format in the Arbortext IsoDraw Data Exchange Reference.)
