Files with the .CDR extension contain vector graphic stored in a proprietary format of the CorelDraw graphic program. CorelDraw is designed for creating and editing 2 D images, such as brochures, posters and logotypes.
CGM files store raster or vector graphics and text. CGM format is commonly used by various graphics editing software tools. CGM format is popular in publishing industry.
After converting the file to the new format, you will be able to use other programs to support it. Keep in mind, however, that the CDR file after converting to CGM may differ slightly from the original. The most important information should be kept, but if you want the file after conversion from CDR to CGM to be the same, you have to do this carefully and choose the proper application from the list below.
There is no guarantee, of course, that the conversion will come up to all your expectations, but it will certainly help you. If, after all, the effect of converting CDR to CGM does not meet your expectations, you can simply try to find on the Internet a different version of your file in CDR format, properly converted to a CGM file by someone else. If this fails, use the information provided in the further part of the website.
If after converting the file CDR the desired result was not achieved, you can try to change the format of CDR file to other than CGM. On our website you will find more information on the following conversion options
Unfortunately, if after performing the two previously described steps (trying to find your CDR file converted by someone else, and the attempt to convert it to CGM on your own) you still have a problem with your file, then there are only a few solutions left. You can once again try to find and install an application that can open the CDR file in its original format (without conversion to CGM file). Such a solution will be difficult to implement, but it certainly will give the best result.
