How to convert cdx to png file

The only way to reliably export CorelDRAW compressed drawings (.cdx) to other graphics formats (including .png files) would be to use the original program. This is because CorelDRAW formats are proprietary and usually not supported in other programs.

One thing to remember is that .cdx files are vector graphics and .png is bitmap, so by doing cdx to png conversion you will throw away all the vector data and just get a raster image.

Understanding CDX and PNG file formats

The CDX file format is primarily associated with ChemDraw, a chemical structure drawing software. It is used to store chemical structure diagrams and related information. On the other hand, the PNG (Portable Network Graphics) format is a widely-used image format known for its lossless compression and support for transparent backgrounds. Converting a CDX file to a PNG file allows you to share chemical diagrams as standard images, making them accessible for presentations and publications.

How to convert CDX to PNG

To convert a CDX file to a PNG file, you will need software that can open CDX files and export them as PNG images. One of the best tools for this conversion is ChemDraw itself, as it natively supports both file formats.

Using ChemDraw for CDX to PNG conversion

  1. Open your CDX file in ChemDraw.
  2. Go to the File menu and select Export.
  3. Choose PNG as the export format.
  4. Specify the desired resolution and other settings.
  5. Click Save to complete the conversion.

Alternative software for CDX to PNG conversion

If you do not have access to ChemDraw, you can use online converters like Zamzar or Convertio. These platforms allow you to upload a CDX file and convert it to PNG without installing any software. However, ensure that the online service you choose supports CDX files and maintains the quality of the chemical diagrams during conversion.
