<p><b>Opening a file</b>
<p>Select Open from the File menu to open a file. Use the filter list and the bottom to limit the types of files which are displayed. File formats are determined by the DOS-style extension -- e.g., foo.cml is assumed to be a CML-format file.
<p><b>Saving a file</b>
<p>Press Ctrl+S to save the current drawing. You will be prompted for a file name if no name was previously specified. To save the drawing to a new file or format, select Save as... from the File menu. File format is determined by the extension, not the file type box -- e.g., a file ending in .mol will be saved as an MDL Molfile, regardless of file type box selection.
<p><b>Making images</b>
<p>XDrawChem can save images in a number of formats for use by other applications. Use the "Save picture..." option under the File menu. Currently, XDrawChem can save to EPS (PostScript), Windows bitmap (.bmp), PNG, and SVG.
<p><b>Printing</b>
<p>Use the Page Setup dialog to specify paper size and orientation, and Print to make a hard copy of the current drawing. It's possible to print to a printer or to a file.
