SVG Files

[Bert Kemp]

Could someone explain to me how to download and open an svg file in corel. I use firefox browser and everytime I try down load an svg file it opens IE and saves it as a webpage and when I clic on the icon it just opens that webpage. Thanx for any help.

right click / save as

I thought people only used IE to download Firefox or Chrome. I would never use it on the internet unless I wanted trouble as in viruses etc.

Keith that the first thing I do when I get a computer, I download Firefox and then chrome, I then delete the IE icon but the browser stays on the computer. For the longest time I had to file my monthly state taxes using IE just a few months ago the state finally upgraded ,now we can use firefox.

Ahh, I see Bert. You can remove the default file association so instead of opening in IE it could default to download or open with Corel etc. I know "save as" works but it can catch you out and I like to set my computers to do what I want. This explains the operation for win7

You should also be able to right click and choose "open file with"...

It doesn't give me that option, but it says save picture, and I guess I never tried that because I wanted a vector file. I just now saved the picture and it opened in corel as a vector image.I hate the fact that it always opens IE and it takes 6 weeks for the picture to open. gawd.

Thnx guys I guess I'm set now
