  2. In the dialog box, click the options for creating a new file.
  3. Under Object Type, choose IntelliCAD Drawing, and click OK.
  4. Create the IntelliCAD drawing.
  5. If IntelliCAD is running in its own window, choose File > Exit.
  6. If IntelliCAD is running within the other document (in place), click somewhere in the document outside the IntelliCAD drawing to close IntelliCAD.
