Saving Files and Viewing Properties
To avoid accidentally losing data, it is important to save your work frequently. Use the Save
command in the File menu to save an existing file. Use the Save As command to make a copy of
the file with a different name so that you can edit it without changing the original file.

Saving PLT files

The first time you save a file, the Save As dialog box opens so that you can name the file and
specify the folder to save it in. After a PLT file has been saved, just click File > Save to save and
update the file.
