I am using CorelDraw 12. I am trying to automate the Art work generation process using the Interop.CorelDraw Assembly along with C# .Net. I am facing a problem. When I am creating a word object, if the Height of the Text is greater than 21cms the art work is not being generated. It took me a while to understand this. I am not really sure how to remove the size range for the Text.
View 1 RepliesI work in plumbing design and am constantly burdened by the tedious task of setting out hundreds upon thousands of penetrations every month for the guys on site to locate their plumbing points through the slab.
They use a GPS system to expedite the plotting, but first I provide a CAD file with just 3 layers; GRids ( a line ), Wastepoint ( a donut poly line ) and Fixture Name ( multi text) which the survey program can interpret and set out from ( actually, the surveyor only needs one point, which he grabs from the site grids that I provide ).
So that's all good, but on top of this I must dimension off the grids every point so that measurements can be done on site as back-up/cross checking.
Of course I can't have dims overlapping each other.
Is there any way to automate this part of the process? Taking a dim from the nearest grid (x and y axis) to the centre of the object I use for the penetration.
The problem: I need to automate the job of combining two pictures. Normally I would open those two images, create a new empty file, drag the 2 pics, resize them so they have the same heigth and width, export the new picture for use on the internet and... done.
The result should look something like this (image size here is reduced for the sake of speed):
I'm trying to automate the process of scanning a bunch old public domain magazines. When I try to create an Action to automate the process of the following mouse clicks:
File > Import > WIA Support
Click START button on WIA Support screen
Choose which device I want to use [flatbed scanner] > Click OK
Choose Custom Settings > Click PREVIEW
the Action stops at the very first step above (File > Import > WIA Support).
Maybe Actions aren't the best way to go about automating this entire process. If there is a better way this can be done how do I go about it? I want the macro / Action to stop at the last step above because I often need to adjust the portion of the page that I actually want scanned so I need to do the final step manually (actually scanning the page once I'm satisfied with the preview).
I would like to use Drag2PDF to create my PDF, and I want to automate the printing process. I want to print all sheets as a one PDF file. I have created a simple C# code, which prints to PDF, but I have one problem... When I submit the print a dialogue will appear (from the Drag2PDF) which asks for the file to be saved (location and name) How can I automate this?
I may not use pdfAddIn.SaveCopyAs, it makes my PDF not good.
public void PrintDrawingToPDF() {
Inventor.DrawingPrintManager oPrintMgr = (Inventor.DrawingPrintManager)InventorOpen._invApp.ActiveDocument.PrintManager;
oPrintMgr.Printer = "Drag2PDF";
oPrintMgr.PaperSize = PaperSizeEnum.kPaperSizeA3;
oPrintMgr.PrintRange = PrintRangeEnum.kPrintAllSheets;
oPrintMgr.SubmitPrint();

how to use the match color tool to automatically convert one grayscale image into multiple output images based on a collection of color swatches? Or a better process to achieve this automated?
I have all the swatches in psd files in one directory. I can do them one-by-one but I was wondering if there was a way to automate this process and have it spit out and save the different images automatically based on the saved swatch colors.
The text below is set in one conatiner, I want to recolor 28m 100y process to a PMS 130 Global swatch.
I select the type, use recolor artwork, and take the arrows off of everything except the 2nd color (which is 28m 100y). This is where I get stuck, how do I assign PMS 130 to be the destination color?
Tried clicking a few things and did not work, and if I try to choose document swatches, I get the error below.
I cannot use select >> same fill color, because the type is in one text container, and I need just the gold type selected (along with fills and strokes in the rest fo the document)

I've seen that with Photoshop we can use batch processing to edit many images automatically.
My question is:
Is there some way that Photoshop import text from a MSExcel database and paste it in a text layer in my PSD file?.
I have a PSD template with 4 layers: the first one is the color base layer. The other 3 ones are the text layers. I want to import the registers of my Excel database and paste them in each text layer, and then save the image as a PNG file (by default the name of the PNG file would be the text of one of the text layers).
My Excel database has +1000 registers so I want to create +1000 images.
Can be possible that Photoshop do this with a script or addin or any other procedure?. If not possible, is there a way to do it with the help of a third-party software?. if not possible, is there any other software that do what I need?.
My objective is to create Flashcards with Photoshop.
I know that there are many specialized software to create flashcards but unfortunately none of them offer what I want because they create flashcards with plain text only. What I really need is to have my text with art (different types of letters, differente art, different sizes, diferent colors, etc), and I can only do this with Photoshop.
I am looking into making TTF file creation from CorelDRAW a little easier. If I record a macro of exporting a single character I get the very basics - just a filename and all it does is pop up the export window where one needs to select the character, set the size, etc. Rather time consuming and awkward.
is there a way to automate this? Just set which character is being saved, set the size and so on? Unfortunately the ExportOptions and ExportFilter structures seem to be basically undocumented (or I don't know how to find their options).
Program: CorelDraw X6 64 bitOS: Windows 7 SP1 64 bit
I have problem when exporting selected only artwork to eps. The artwork itself contains standard fill objects with no strokes and no special effect on each object (drop shadow, powerclip, etc). On EPS Export dialog I change nothing, just clicked OK button.
The problem is there is no sign if the process success or fail.The file created only have zero bytes.The File>Exit menu is dimmed.When I try to close the document, it say:
Some of the documents could not be closed, because tasks are being performed in the background. Check the status bar of each opened document to see what tasks are being performed and their progress.
I can't close the document and exit the program, so I have to use Task Manager. Also if I continue to edit the artwork, i.e. selecting an object inside a group, the program crashed.

What can I do other than manually re-save all these files? What kind of Batch export with sub-folders is possible? I have tried the file convert, but it fails after 4 files.
I've experienced when using CorelDraw X5 with Windows 7, in Windows Explorer it will only show the generic CorelDraw X5 "green" icon for a thumbnail. It doesn't show the thumbnail of the actual artwork. Workaround to show the artwork thumbnail?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI would like to export my Corel files and parse them myself with C# code for display in Microsoft’s WPF. I've tried this with SVG files with mixed success. Any resource that explains the coordinate system of Corel's SVG export data?
After parsing corel SVG paths, I've noticed some odd behavior. Here are a few things:
The position of a Corel graphic on a page prior to exportation affects the size of the graphic in the SVG file?
I get negative numbers (x y points) in the SVG file when corel numbers are all pos. The x,y values seem to be flipped to y,x values.

Basically I want to allow some users to activate their installations without knowning the serial number (I work in a large institution).
I really don't know the best way to do this or maybe there is a standard, but here is what I am wanting.
When you put text over a simple vector graphic, the graphics makes it hard to read the Text.
I normally delete the graphic lines touching the text and this works but was wondering if there was another way.
Example: if this is a one color design "White" and it is just an outline of lets say a human, and I want to display text which is "White" also across the human image sometimes the image will interfere with being able to read the text clearly.

@The moment i am trying to get the saveAs settings that were used when the user hits the save/saveAs button in autocad.
My addin needs to store the current document with these settings. i dont want to use some pop-up dialog.
The .currentVersion property saves the document with the applicationversions standard saveprofile.
I need some kind of property that reflects the users saveAs settings.
Is there any way getting those information via the .net api without doing the interop stuff?
