Saving in Corel Draw

[stubby1rocks]

I am having trouble saving an image that I have changed the outline to a hairline so that I can vector it. After I have gone all the way around and gotten the hairline, when I save it, close it, and then reopen it, the hairline is gone from the image. HELP!

Be sure that the outline is not just "hidding" behind the traced bitmap. One way to ensure this is to copy your traced outline to a second page. When you are sure it is saved, then you can delete the first page and the original image. This can sometime happen too if you are editing the bitmap (i.e. opened the bitmap in Corel Draw as opposed to importing it). When you click save, you are saving the vector back to raster, and incorporating it into the bitmap. B ut that is just a guess. Copying the outline to a second page should resolve any issues (to create a second page, hit the " + " sign on the page counter at the bottom left corner of the layout/screen.
