Tips

To open a document you have recently opened, choose the file name from the list at the bottom of the File menu.

You can also drag-and-drop the file onto the program from the Explorer (or File Manager) or double-click on it. If you drop the file onto an existing document, it will be imported into that document. to open it, drop it onto a control bar.

If you want to load a file into an existing document, use Import.

You can also open files with the Clipart Gallery.

If you click on a PNG, BMP, GIF, JPEG, XAR or WEB file, you see a preview of it in the dialog box. (WEB files: you see a preview only if the file contains a preview - this is a Save option).
