What I have tried:

public void SaveAs()
		{
			UpdateData();
			SaveFileDialog dlg = new SaveFileDialog();
			dlg.Filter = "Cad XML files (*.txt)|*.cadxml";
			dlg.OverwritePrompt = true;
			if (m_filename.Length > 0)
				dlg.FileName = m_filename;
			if (dlg.ShowDialog(this) == DialogResult.OK)
			{
				m_filename = dlg.FileName;
				m_data.Save(m_filename);
				Text = m_filename;
			}
		}

You cannot load one file and then simply use save to save it as a different type. You need to convert the CAD file into an image with some code. Either an existing library which you can search for with Google. Or writing the code yourself based on the information about the structure of a cadxml file. Although the extension suggests that it is XML (i.e. text) rather than an image.
