Hi Guys just updated to CC 2020 and tried to saved a file in legacy format. For the life of me I couldn't find the option. Neither 'save as' nor 'exported'. Am I missing something?

    After File > Save (or File > Save As…, or keyboard shortcut equivalent of either) you get a dialog about where to save and what format. Set those as you want and click Save. This brings up another dialog, at the top of which is the dropdown menu for Version.

    Save as > Illustrator and choose Version: Illustrator CC (Legacy) from the dropdown list.
