I have a few thousand images that I created using Corel version 12 and X-5
I have been using X-5 for about the past six months or so and when I have to open a hundred images and they open to 60% each time.
Is there a way to select all the image in a folder and have them open to 100% everytime?
Just wondering if I could change the openning settings in a batch.
I would like to know the default font height setting in coreldraw 12. I want font size in millimeter rather than pt.

I can't get the box to pop up where I can set the default size because I think I checked the box to not show it again. How to get it back?

I have to use Type 1 Helvetica and not that new "Helvetica Neuel T 55 Roman" because of standards for a magazine I work on. I though Open Type Helvetica (the real Helvetica) was included with CorelDRAW X6.
How can I change the default text size? I can set the size to 12 pt in three different places and choose "save settings as default", and when I place the text cursor on the page, it goes back to 24 pt. Very maddening...

View 2 Replies View RelatedI make an image 15.8 x 29.8 and when it prints out on my canon 8300 it is only 15.5 x 29.5 actual size measured on the canvas. the image is designed to wrap over the edge of stretchers 15 x29. the pics are 3 tenths inch short!
another pic is 15.5 x 29.25 instead of 15.5 x 29.5 so it is 1/4 inch short the long direction.don't recall having this problem before so why are the images not the same size in print that they are on the screen?
I have some Ai files that I need to open in X6 but they use linked images which I have, but when opening in CorelDraw all I get is the basic Ai stuff but not the linked images, is there an easy way to open the Ai file and see it as it was intended?
As a sub note I can't go back to the supplier of the Ai file to make any changes.
I have a lot of pdfs that are A6 format, and need to keep them this size. When I open the document in Coreldraw they open as A4 page (looking at the document properties (although it does look like its the A6 size with a lot of white space around it.
How can I get corel to open it to the correct A6 page size?
Export is weird, maintain size is checked but it dose not give the proper size. My page size is 922x1344, but the image exported is half that size.
View 14 Replies View RelatedUpgrading to X6 today due to Windows 7 issues, per IT dept. Right off the bat, all the arrowheads on our lines are gone. We always used third one on the arrowhead drop down, but now we have to select them all and add the arrowhead back in, and then change the other half to point in the right direction.
Bug fix for this or just suck up and change 1K drawings in our library?
I have several Coral Draw-12 files saved in a particular folder. The problem is when i am trying to open a particular file it's fine but, when trying to open a second or third .cdr file (with the first file opened) from the same folder it' s not opening.

i need to edit the file and i dont know why coreldraw X5 is not letting me view the entire file. How i can overcome this or if there are any settings that i may have chanced of hot key shortcuts that i could have pressed by accident. also i have been using draw x5 for about a year put i only use half the program for what i need it for.
I have Corel Draw x5; our store computer has x4 installed on it. We're having trouble opening files in x4 that were created in x5.
View 12 Replies View RelatedI just installed X6 in a new computer ( the old one crashed and burned) I had both X5 & X6 in the old computer. Just installed the X6 in the new one. Several old files created in X5 will not open in X6. When I try to open them - they crash X6. Have taken files to another computer and same happens. These files open OK in X5. I have tried 'resaving them' in X5 to V12 and opening in X6 - Crashes Corel same as before..?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm sure this has been answered many times before but I've been unable to locate any old threads. I was under the impression that the old import method had gone by the wayside and the file could be opened directly or imported as a pdf?
I have both Adobe CS 4 and Corel Draw X3
all my attempts thus far have failed...
I have had this problem since I loaded CorelDRAW X6 (64-bit) in June, 2012 but was busy learning all that was new since the ancient version running on my equally ancient Windows98 machine. Up until this point, I have tried all of the directions in the manual, this forum and on the website which includes, "Save Settings As Default". (These instructions do not differ from those I use in the old CD package only where I make them.)
These are the steps taken:
Open CorelDRAW X6 starting a new file.
Go to "Text Properties" Docker & choose the font, size, etc.
Under Tools, select "Save Settings As Default", close CDX6.
Technically, these steps should have saved the new font with associated choices for all future files until I change them again, but it does not. When I open a new or existing file, my new font changes do appear on the Text docker so I choose the outlined A on the toolbox bar, my choices are still showing on the Text docker and now, also on the Property bar. As soon as I click on the workspace where the flashing cursor awaits input, the text properties change to Arial, 24 pt, which has appeared since I first loaded the package. Should I redownload and reinstall the software? If so, where are the preference files so I can save them?
But when I double click out of the file manager it opens X5 ??
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a 900 x 500 px image in Adobe Illustrator, which overlaps a bit the canvas on the left side.
When I open this file with Corel, it adjusts my graphics so that it's centered on the screen. The AI file is centered on another point. Also, the canvas Corel creates is A4 sized. I always have to resize the canvas and then manually adjust the position of my graphics.
Question: How can I save an AI file so that when I open it at Corel, the position and size of the canvas will be exactly the same?
How on earth do you export bitmaps cropped to the size of the canvas? This seems like the simplest functionality ever but i can't get it to work. For example, I am designing an advert for use online. It needs to be 600px wide x 150px high. I may want to use a background image or a photo that when placed goes beyond the edge of the canvas. Logic dictates i would only want to export the canvas with a web image (otherwise why would i have set an exact number of pixels.) However, Corel insists on exporting everything on the canvas and desktop. Surely it should allow us to choose the bounding area of the exported bitmap.
Just to clarify what I mean, i've included a screen shot showing and example original graphic and the export result. I'm sure there must be an easy way to do this. If it's one like this i can crop it easily, but sometimes a print customer will ask me to send them, for example, a 32pp booklet we have designed for them with each page as a JPG and to crop each one manually is a right pain.
When I try to open an X5 template in X6, nothing happens in X6. I don't receive any error messages. It looks like the template is opening, but I just end up with a blank grey (no file opened) slate. I am using the 32-bit build. Everything else seems fine.
View 1 Replies View RelatedWhen trying to open a coreldraw document sent to me containing fonts that I do not have, I cannot seem to open only as curves and it always wants to replace missing fonts. I am sure I could do this with X3, but not X5.
I just want to import as curves and not substitute fonts.
I'm trying to open a large file (1.2gig) but corel is having a error reading (dialoge box pop up). I have another file 1.19 gig which takes a few minutes to open but is fine.
I have 2gig ram so just wondering what the limit for file size in x3 file is? The file in question was running sweet yesterday so I didn't realise it was so large.
Is there any way to recover the contents ? I can see it in preview so I don't believe it is corrupt....the back-up has the same issues.
I am looking into using CD X5 for my laser engraver, but I am running into a bit of a issue. I have to open PDFs into corel but when I do I lose all the spacing between each word. The font is not subsituted, there is no issue with opening it, and I can rip the file to the output device. I can edit the text by adding a space, I have double hit the space bar to make one space.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI have fully licensed X4 version. Last week i was receiving 4 different cdr files (cdr X4), created by other person (lets call him Jack). Files were ok, but there was some grammar mistakes, so I asked Jack to correct them and send files back to me. But! When he did that, I wasn't able to open theese files . My Corel hangs trying to open all of them. And it seems like files are opened and Corel is running, but i can not see anything, even panels...Only gray or white screen is visible.... Today, 12 of April, i received files (created also on version X4) from another person and story repeats. It only happans with some cdr X4 files, other works just fine.
Common thing is that all of them are created on X4 version. I tried several times to reinstall my corel, but it did work. I downloaded trial version of Corel X5 on other PC, there i was able to open them, save for version 14, only then i could open theese files on my pc. But i can not do that all the time. Jack is very active client and trial version is only for a month =). I need to understand is it my Corel problem, or Jacks. But todays events, shows it is my problem. I have a feeling, that it might be some corel updates, which prevent my Legal Corel X4 to open cdr files, created on Pirate Corel X4 version. Can it be true? Conflict between legal and illegal versions... If trully, such updates took place last week
Last week I opened some .eps files into coreldraw 12 without any hitch. But two days later I am unable to open or import any of the eps files. I am unable to find out what is the problem. The files I opened and worked on earlier are now opening as static bmp files or they are just opening as a grey square with adobe illustrator written on it. I tried selected both (eps) and (ps, prn, eps ) from the file type while importing. Also I kept the sort type at default. But still it keeps giving me the invalid file type error.
View 5 Replies View RelatedWe have tried this on 5 different machine configurations from XP (SP3) to windows 7 (SP1).
We do magazine outlays and therefore require large files. As soon as we go above certain size ( about 1.7GB), then the file will save. But try and open the file then we get an error. Disassembling the file gives an error on opening hte RIFF file. Try and import then erro is "cannot import empty file".
Quite a few people have given advice on using smaller files, but that is impractical. Our only viable solution at the moment is using files split into 10 to 20 pages each. Importing all the section, then creating the PDF and do not bother to save the complete file. We even went as far as building a test machine with up to 24GB of RAM and all the bells & whistles and only windows barebone + updates, no other 3rd party software except Coreldraw X5.
what the size of file is that Coreldraw X5 can handle? WHere are the limitations and is there a swap file setting?

I noticed over the last few days that Corel was taking a while to open files. Like, if I had one open already it was usually fast enough, but if Corel wasn't open I'd get an error from the file manager I use saying it couldn't execute the program. Every time though, if I closed CorelDraw, and open a new instance of the program I'd be fine again.
Today has been different. Today I've had to restart corel practically every time I've tried to open a document. A few minutes ago I couldn't even get corel to open.
Right now where I'm at: I can open corel, I can change workspaces, but I can't open any file or even a 'new blank document' It freezes/hangs with the processing bar at about 80 %.
I'm going to try a restore point. I brag about how stable my system is, this makes no sense, I don't think it is a corel problem, I've noticed a ton of updates from Windows starting middle of last week. I just figured it would work itself out. I'll post every step I take. Oh, and by the way, I can open PhotoPaint Just fine.
I've removed update KB2853952 - Improvement only in that I can open corel, but can't open a new document or an existing document. I've done an F8 while starting up Corel Draw and reset to factory specs. No change. Deleted all 10,006 items in my temp folder. No change. System restore back to 9/10/2013 worked. Corel functions as expected.
Current System: i3 3.07ghz, 3gb ram, Windows 7 32 bit with all updates and X6
