I put corel draw x3 on a new laptop with window 7 and the bitsteam font navigator will not work. Well actually it worked once, then when I went to add more fonts (find fonts) it just freezes up. I have uninstalled and re installed it and still have same problem. Never had this problem on windows xp.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI work with Corel X6 and Beatstream Navigator on regular basis. During start and save Corel & Beatstream make changes inside Windows system font (In my case Sagoe UI) and compromise it's usage for Adobe Photoshop CS6.
It's crash core menus and banners inside PS6.
Problem go away if you uninstall Bitstream Font Navigator.
Is there any other newer type manager or any other solution to solve this problem?
The (X4) Font Navigator will not work in Windows 7. It is preventing files created on my office computer (windows XP) from opening on my home computer (windows 7)
View 5 Replies View RelatedMy font navigator used to install the font automatically if I have it on the system but it wasn't installed. It has quit doing that. It tells me I'm missing the font then I have to manually go to the navigator and install it then open the file again. I've had this happen on multiple systems and versions of corel. I'm currently running X5 on Vista-64.
Just to clarify. When I open a file that I don't have the font installed for it will bring up a dialog box that says missing fonts. See screen shot below. The part that says install from Font Navigator is Grey and I can't select it no matter what. I have to take note of what fonts are missing then open font navigator, load them in and then re open the file. It worked fine a couple of weeks ago and then just quit.
So we have three computers hooked up here, all running off a main terabyte drive where all the fonts are stored. Bitstream, X3, and X5 are on all the computers. Bitstream works on 2 out of the 3, but on this one when I go to the drop down list in the Font Navigator I only get the option for the Local C and DVD drive. I can log on to the "Network" version of the terabyte drive, but once I get in it asks me for a password when the drive has not set up to be password protected. I have installed service pack 1 and 2 for X3 + the Bitstream patch. I'm running Windows 7.

What if I install it from CD, because on CD there is the older not fixed version of FontNav and I don't know what to do next.How can I update it after installing it or I have to remove all Corel programs, reinstall them and update to 16.4?
I have a problem opening Font Navigator in Windows 7.
When I click the exe startup for Font Navigator Windows 7 asks if it's OK for this program to make changes to my computer. I answer yes, the screen flickers and Font Navigator fails to open.
This is a recent problem and I can't trace it to any changes on my PC. I have completely cleared Corel Suite from the computer and reloaded the applications.
What the little sun icon indicates on some of the installed fonts on Bitstream Font Navigator? I think they might be system fonts but I'm not sure.
I have too many fonts installed right now so I want to reduce that number but I don't want to cause a problem if those are required to stay in place.
It seems to work. How un-Corel-like.

The version that came with X4 worked in XP, but when I upgraded to Windows 7 it wouldn't install Type 1 fonts, and it wouldn't install any missing fonts when a file loaded. I buy Font Expert, though I never got it to work as well as the old FN.
But my new (trial) version of X5 has a version of the utility (v. 6.0.0, build 108) that seems to work just fine both ways. Thats a wonderful. When did this happen? There's a noticeable difference in the versions, according to xplorer2. X4's version:
and X5's:
I can no longer load X4's version; only v. 6.0.0 comes up, so I can't compare. But FN now works properly in X4, too, so Corel must have done something to address this. Cool.
Font Navigator stopped working correctly. Not showing any fonts. When will be update for this software?

View 13 Replies View Relatedthe reason that I've always used Font Navigator is that If you open a CorelDraw file that is missing fonts, Font Navigator will install those fonts if they exist on your system...
that worked fine under 9
now with X4 dont load the proper fonts or suggest other ( suppose from Unicode structure of the font?)
I use TTF and OTF fonts i have them in separate folder..,
Just tried using the new Google Font Finder option in DXP9. I select a font that is not already installed and Xara tells me it will now run the 'FontInstall' program, I click the 'Install' button and Windows 7 UAC prompts me to confirm running FontInstall.exe, I click 'yes' and then.... nothing. Xara locks with cursor mouse showing busy when held over Xara. Clicking any part of the program give me a windows 'Xara Designer Pro X is not responding' message.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI had posted in another thread about wanting to clean up a signature and make it look more font like. I tried that and it seemed to be pretty difficult due to the amount of random in a hand written signature.
So I think I'd like to approach this from the other direction. I have a font I like but I don't want it to look like the font (way too common). Is there a way to alter the font (not the entire font set or even to create a new font but just for a one word Logo)?
I'd ideally like to connect two of the letters and also modify the shapes of the letters just a bit.
I have a user using X4 on Win7 which on the most part, works well without any hassle.
Recently however they have been experiencing issues where the program will hang endlessly whenever they go to edit any text within a file.
The program has the latest updates, and is excluded from on access AV scanning so there shouldn't be any locked file issues.
I've also rolled back the latest Windows Updates just in case but to no avail.
I inserted a picture in a square using powerclip; I also used some lens effects inside the frame; then when I wanted to edit, the program froze my pc completely, not just Corel but also windows.

I'm writing a manual using Corel Draw X5. The manual is 125 pages. When I spell check the whole document it freezes. I waited well over 20 minutes before concluding that something was wrong. Forcing Corel to close during the "not responding" state corrupts the document. When I try to reopen it, it hangs during the opening process.
I am fully updated on the software. Is this document too big for Corel Draw?
I have had CorelDRAW X6 for about 6-months with no problems. Recently I try to open X6 and the load time is extremly long. Once it finally loads the screen looks normal but when I click on anything on the screen i just get a "ding" sound and the screen is frozen. I actually have to go to task manager to shut it off.
Once in a while I can open a previous design and then everything will work fine. I thought I would try to re-install the software. I tried to uninstall but when I get to the uninstall page I see three options "Modify", "Repair", or "Remove". I can click on these but there is not other botton on the page like and OK or Continue, so I am stuck.
This software is very important to my t-shirt design business. how to either get it to load normally and act normal or at least be able to uninstall and re-install?
Anytime I import a piece of Clipart and I go to the Trace bitmap button>outline trace>line art the program freezes immediately. The diagbox doesn't even pop up, nor does it say "not responding" at the top.
I am running Win 8 but it has been running for months without a hitch. I have cleaned out temp files and reinstalled the suite and nothing happened.
I've been using X6 for over a year without any major problems. I have all updates and hotfixes installed. Last night I saved a project I was working on and this morning when I went to open it it crashed immediately, before the splash screen even appeared. Everything froze including the mouse and keyboard and I had to do a hard shutdown. I booted back up, tried again and the same thing. Tried different .cdr files and opening CDX6 directly. Same complete system-wide crash. The F8 reset option freezes the system too.
I tried reinstalling the last update and as soon as the reinstall began it crashed. I tried uninstalling it. It crashed. Each time freezing the complete system, mouse, keyboard and all, requiring a hard shut down. I scanned for viruses—nothing.
Everything was working fine last night, all I did was boot down the PC for the night and boot it back up in the morning like I've done a million times.
Draw freezes upon file 'Open'. Status bar locks indefinitely.
Solution Attempts:
1. PRESSED F8!!!!
2. deleted all macros
3. rebooted
4. cleaned out temp files
5. checked for bad fonts
Entire Corel suite freezes on start up - I cannot do anything. Reinstalling also does not work - suddenly buttons on the installer dissapeared - there is no text on them and when I click them nothing happens.
A week ago I have installed service pack 3 and everything worked fine. It has all gone wrong again. And installation of the latest patches does not work anymore.
I am running Windows 7 64-bit and I've got a feeling that is must have something to do with system updates.
Private Sub lstFonts_Change() Me.lblFontcboOverLabel = Me.lstFonts.Text Me.lblFontcboOverLabel.Font = Me.lstFonts.Text Me.lblFontcboOverLabel.Font.Size = 12 Fface = Me.lstFonts.TextEnd Sub
I have added this code to display how the font looks (shown below). But notice i have text font set aside. How do i get my test font to display in the "display box" and/or have my font change as i scroll through the list of fonts. I realize corelx6 kind of does this - but it doesn't allow me to single out fonts.
My vertical font spacing changes on its own from time to time.
Created a template where my font space was 100% and all looked well and positioned correctly. Used the template to create a few thousand files over 6 months. Then opened the template and some of the files I created and found the font was spaced out more than usual. Somehow Corel interpreted my font spacing differently. I checked the font file and it was the same date/time as before.
I changed the template to 92% to bring it down to the required "correct" position and gradually "fixed" all the files i had created to the 92% spacing. After 6 months or so, I opened the template and a few of the files that had been created using the 92% spacing and all were "squished"... oi.. i changed the template back to 100% and began the long haul changing each of the created files to 100%.
Now i just checked and the spacing is too squished and if i change it to 110% vertical, it appears spaced correctly.
I havent changed the version of corel. I havent changed the computer. I havent changed the font (still the original one from the original source file). I reloaded the font using the original source file several times for kicks and it still requires the 110% spacing to be positioned correctly.
I'm only using one one color print and I need to put a '''ballerina" hole in a big fat "D". How do I turn the ballerina into a hole? The letter "D" is pink and I of course can put her on the top layer of the "D" but how can I make her a hole?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI upgraded from CorelDraw 12 to X5 when I upgraded from XP to Windows 7. I thought I transferred all my fonts to the new system. But often when I open old CorelDraw 12 files, X5 tells me that fonts are missing and it offers substitutes which really screw up the document. The fonts it says are missing tend to be fonts I have never heard of! The latest is Centaur.
If I do a search for 'Centaur', a copy of my old system's AdobeFnt.lst comes up, as well as AdobeSysFnt08.lst and AdobeFnt05.lst (I have parts of my old HD on my E:DATA/ drive). I don't know how to open them or how they got to the old disk. Should these be in some way incorporated into my X5 files? Is Centaur a font that used to be in CorelDraw and no longer is? By the way, I have the boxed version, so it should have all the fonts.
I'm trying to install the EPS font file in Corel Draw X6 and can't seem to get it to work. The Font Navigator can't find the font and the "Install EPS" function in CDX6 just dumps an image of the whole font into whatever I'm working on.
