Okay, thanks. That seems backwards to me. AI saves in the same format that the file was opened as? Is that a Mac thing?

No, that's true with the PC version too. It assumes that if you open and edit an older version you might need to give the edited copy back to somebody with that old program.

But if you make changes using new features and it can't save them in the old format it will say so, and should give you the option to save in a newer format.

With SaveAs you are making a new file, so it defaults to saving it in the latest version.

in corel, I can't control nor do I know which level is saved as or exported as EPS but you can choose postscript level.

My export to EPS from CDR12 defaults to postscript level 1.

Corel 9 will import as PS Prn EPS OK.

Just more info.

p.s. Yes the last reply should have been directed ti you.
