No Corel draw 19 files do not work on Corel draw 12. This is my biggest headache. I want to work on Corel draw 12 but all the latest hardware doesn't support windows 7 which supports Corel draw 12. I am really in a fix.
Actually the problem with me is that I need Corel 12 for business and Windows 10 does not support it. I cant use latest corel because in the ecosystem I live in everybody uses old version and you just cant survive out of the ecosystem. But at the same time I want a modern Graphic Design machine that can match up to the workflow I have. I am really in a fix what to do.You'll have to go back a few years to find such a system as newer systems only support Windows 10 (and maybe 8.1). Windows 7 goes "End Of Life" in just over a week which means no more patches or updates. Time to face the facts (whether or not you want to hear it) that Windows 10 is the future.
Then you (and your "ecosystem") is at a crossroads. Your requirements are diametrically opposed. You cannot have both a modern "Graphic Design" machine and one that supports the old workflow (as you've defined it) simultaneously. Something has to give. Though Windows 7 in a virtual machine just might be usable.Actually the problem with me is that I need Corel 12 for business and Windows 10 does not support it.

I was reading about MSI B450 Tomahawk motherboard and it said it supports windows 7 64 bit with Pinnacle Ridge and Summit Ridge CPUs. How does that work?Then you (and your "ecosystem") is at a crossroads. Your requirements are diametrically opposed.

I live in India and eBay shows windows 7 machines at 420 dollars plus 100 dollars shipping. But atleast I will be saved the headache of individually looking for four year old parts. Good option.Rather than build a windows 7 machine, I would buy one. With the EOL of Windows 7 coming there are many windows 7 machines for sale on Ebay.

Thanks for the advice. Even 6th Generation processors will be a massive upgrade over my current Core 2 duo. Also Microsoft didn't do good by blocking windows 7 on all newest hardware but nothing can be done now.Some peoples and companies still use windows 7. It have better compatibility, stability, performance and etc. in some ways, better work with older software(also newer). Not everybody have hundreds, or thousands dollars for new rigs and software. I think best, and newest you can get from intel 6 th gen processors. Also check motherboards, that fully supports windows 7 drivers and features.

You can actually save as 12 using the newer features in 2019.
Just an option...
