If you want to save a different file type you would use file->save as and use the “save as type” pull down to select what type of file you want. Once you’ve specified the file name you can use ctrl-S or click on the disk icon at the top of the page or use file->save. To save a document you can use file->save as. This means that all the locations on the page have a negative Y value. Keep in mind that the horizontal ruler increases to the right but the vertical ruler increases in the up direction.
You should also “zero” your rulers by clicking on the corner where the 2 rulers meet and dragging it to the corner of the page (see image). If you are using a laser etcher, you should set these to 24”x18”. Next to that pull-down there are 2 boxes with horizontal and vertical dimensions of the page. Pull it down and select “custom” (see image). At the upper left side there is a drop down that might say “letter” or “broadsheet” or “custom”. There is a rectangle on the screen with a drop shadow behind it. In this dialog box you can set the name of the document and various other things but for now just say “OK”. This will cause a dialog box (see image). To create a new document you can do file->new or ctrl-n or you can click on the icon in the extreme upper left corner of the window, just below the “file” menu. When you first open CorelDraw there may be one or more dialog boxes which you probably want to just close.
