CorelDRAW Premium Suite X5 :: Working With Logos - JPEG With White Background
Jun 30, 2011
I'm very new to corel and i just finished designing a poster but i need to add logos. the problem i'm having is that they're in jpeg and they have a white background. i need to remove the white background. i've tried the magic wand and then going to mask and invert. the problem with this is that i can still see quite a bit of white around the logo. An easier way or do i need to go in and clean up the edges in photo paint's cut out lab? i can do this but it just seems like a lot of work and i have to work with about 15 logos.
Quick question, I just created a logo and I'm wondering if there is a way to export the logo into jpeg without the white background. I create posters for my husbands business and it will not be a problem when i add our logo to our posters because I can just remove the background myself.
My problem will be when I have to send the logo to other companies, they usually ask for the logo in jpeg. I've already exported the logo into a jpeg but of course the white document background appears. Is there any way to export ONLY the logo into a jpeg?
I am new to X4 and cannot seem to get rid of the white background when I export a vector to a jpg file. This is probably a no brainier but I have tried setting the page background to none and a few other things but to no avail.
I have a picture of a bull rider that i would like to use in one of my next poster designs with the bull rider being the focus of the poster. I would like to use the entire picture as the layout for my poster. My question is..is it possible to fade out the background a bit without fading out the bull rider?
When I export an image from CorelDraw to a jpeg, or png, (or probably anything for that matter) and try to use it in my web design program I get the little 1 pixel wide white line. WTH? I then have to take it into corel photo paint and erase that one pixel line, in order for it to be gone.
I've used Corel Draw since version 4 I think and this problem has existed in every version Corel has put out. I like the product, I find it easy to use but this glitch is maddening.
Every time I open my Photoshop CS3 program a blank white box appears with heading 'Adobe Web Suite Premium CS3'. There are 3 circles at left, one in is in middle (orange) with - sign and I can remove to dock - however, I still cannot open my files and work now. Then I have to force quit Photoshop just to get rid of white box.
I'm creating two websites for two different clients, and both gave me scanned copies of their logos. I converted them to GIF, JPG, BMP and PNG (from MS paint program), followed all the directions found online in various combinations to remove the white background from these logos. Here's a sample of what I did:
import logo; edit bitmap; change background; used magic wand on white areas; close paint & export doc. I've tried various combinations of clicking on options like transparency, masking, changing the tolerance and nothing works.
On one the white background simply won't go away after saving to my desktop, and on the other there is a grey/white checkerboard pattern on the background.
When it's all said & done, I need to upload these to Wix.com as a PNG.
I'm at my wits end been trying to do this for two days after work, wondering if Corel is even capable of doing this, or if my clients' logos are just unusable or if I'm just losing it.
I have an object that I want to have a background so that the contents under it cannot be seen. Is there a way to do this without having to draw a new shape?
I can change page backgrounds to a darker color. the background of the whole workspace is really bright white, is there any way I can change the entire background to a darker color like neutral gray...like the Photoshop background workspace?
I have a light pink background behind an image which I would like to turn pure white. How can I select the image and white out the background without changing the image? None of the mask tools seem to have any effect.
If I covert a font or shaped image under Bitmaps=>Convert to Bitmaps, I get a white solid background. In Corel x5 this would be a clear background. Also I can no longer Cover to Bitmap a photo then open with bitmap editor to create rectangles or ovals with clear faded edges. These are items I use all the time. How do I achieve this now. Also x6 will not save in x5 version. It will warn me of potencial problems then fail.
I am using X5 and print on a Cannon wide format inkjet printer. I use RGB colors, but I'm having a problem printing on adhesive vinyl. I used R255 G0 B0 that I've used on other medias, but it came out a little orange. I really need a good red to use with my settings.
When I try to import from My Documents, the drop down file format on the right no longer has "ALL FILES" as an option. Therefore, I am unable to import photos, logos, etc.
While i was working on a file the coreldraw got shutdown and the file got corrupted including the backup file now its showing only the coreldraw icon no priviews are there in the thumbnail
We have saved a custom Color Management setup and I would like to know if there is a way to export the file so that it can be loaded on different PC's. We also have a custom Publish to PDF setting that we would like to do the same thing with.
I have X5 and would like to know if there is anyway I can insert an excel name list into a coreldraw file. The file is a layout of badges with a name on 1 line of text, I want to change each line by inserting or dropping the name in with the name list I have in excel. Then there's no worries with spelling corrections on my part.
How can I make the image (photo,bmp,jpeg,etc) as clear as possible to vectorize? I'm finding the more I get into this the more detail I want to add. I can't add the detail if I can't make it out.
I have encountered a problem with the bevel effect of corel draw that I can't seem to resolve. I have a vector image and I convert to curves. Click on effects/bevel/soft edge bevel. I set my distance, I set my shadow colour & light colour and when I apply the bevel it changes the face colour to a murky combination of the original vector colour/shadow colour & light colour. I do not want to change the face colour of the text in any way.
I need to place HTML code so that I can get a blogtalkradio graphic link onto my website. Can't figure out how to place the code so it will display the graphic.
When I'm in Corel Draw, I've imported a picture, converted the picture to bitmap and go to edit bitmap in Corel Paint it says FAILED TO LAUNCH SERVER APPLICATION.
OK, I have this jpeg that I brought into PS. Picture a white square with a red ball in the center. Now you want to get rid of the white background and make it transparent. Simple, right? You delete the white, save and that should be it. When I then bring the art into Illustrator on a colored page, the white is still there. If I place the psd file its not....jpeg it is. I've done this a zillion times! What happened?*
My boss is using CorelDraw x5 on a Dell Studio lappy w/ win7 x64, his question is... If you accidentally stretch text and don't realize it till later is it given a value that can be compared to other text so you can conform it to the rest of the text? Is this a tool or what? The scenario is you accidentally stretch text minutely, save the file, copy and paste this text to another file with same format to realize later it has been manipulated and doesn't match.
