CorelDRAW X4 :: Powerclipped Vectors Printing Different Color?
Feb 2, 2012
When I export a file that has powerclipped vectors (as well as non-clipped vectors) as a tif file, they print a different color.Especially black, the non-clipped black prints a nice rich black, the power-clipped vector
that is the same black, prints muddy?? I have to extract all the contents to get them consistent.
I'm thinking it has to do with the way corel handles powerclipped objects.Printing on a versacamm, using versaworks. Exporting as tif, RGB.

My CorelDraw X5 is working perfectly. I have received some artwork from the client for business cards and the second page is just not printing. Artwork attached.
When you do a print preview it clearly shows that the artwork will print. I've tried to print it to Adobe PDF but no luck. I then tried to use Enfocus Pitstop and interesting enough it reports on the errors that the second page is blank.
I can print it if I convert the artwork to a bitmap but what is the point of having your text in curves if you need to make it a bitmap? I hope it's as easy as changing a setting/properties of the vector to enable it to print.

I am experiencing problems printing vectors from corel draw X5 on windows 7 to an HP deskjet 9300.
I previously had no problems with coreldraw 12 on XP to the same printer. I"m a screen printer and need to color seperate regularly and at the moment get round the problem by converting to bitmap, which prints fine.
The moment I try to print in vector, the page is ejected unprinted. If I print a bitmap and vector side by side on the same page, the bitmap prints fine but the vector does not print at all.

when i trace pictures in BW i often encounter a problem to extract so many small pieces in graphic in the same color.i wonder, if there is some hotkey ( by click :-) to combine together all vectors with the same color, and leaves the rest.

We print out spot color seps every day using CorelDraw X4. After we print out the plates, I have to cut down the vellum that we print on so that we do not have a bunch of extra blank vellum on the sheet.
We make use of the info that is printed on the lower left of every page where it states something like the following:
S:DirectoryWhereTheArtworkisLocatedfilename.cdr
Wednesday, December 23, 2011Â 8:00 AM
Plate: 1 of 3
After I cut down the sheet, I then have to hand write the name of the spot color onto the sheet of vellum in marker.
Is there any way at all, to make it so that CorelDraw would actually add the name of the spot color that is printed on each page to the information that is already being printed to the lower left? Ideally, it could be placed in the same area where it's already printing the plate information on the last line.
Could it read:
Plate: 1 of 3Â Color: Pantone 375

I use Corel to print name tags and sublimate products. I upgraded to X6 from X4 and now none of my colors print as previously set up. I am using the exact same printers, materials etc. The only thing that changed is the version of Corel. I tried the various color profiles and palettes available with no luck. How can I get my colors to print like they did from X4??

Well as much as I do design work for customers for tee shirts,I never had to do color separation, for the screens.I’m wondering how do you do this? ( how do you separate colors in corel, for screen printing) .

Ideal color settings for exporting .jpg and .eps files for CMYK printing? The default X6 settings result in rather washed out looking exports (both on the screen and on the prints). Black looks very dark grey etc.
Never had this issue with X3 but I understand that X6 uses a totally different color engine so I figure I just need to know the correct settings.

I print spot color separations using CorelDraw a lot. Just ungraded from X3 to X5. One problem I am having is in the printing dialog. When a file has, say, 4 colors showing up in the separations section I may only want to print 2 or three of them. I deselect the ones I don't want - but all 4 seps come out. I am wasting a lot of expensive separations.

I'm having problems with printing documents in color using the Corel Draw X6 (Windows 7). My printer is an HP Photosmart 8200 Series and I'm using the most recent driver from HP. I've made sure that the color is turned on (i.e. grayscale is turned off).
When I go the print dialog and the preview I only see black and white (and get no colors when proceeding with printing). For some strange reason I don't get a 'color' tab in the print dialog (where I could check whether grayscale/black&white printing is turned on).
But when I use a different printer driver (e.g. Windows XPS) then suddenly I see the correct preview with color. So somehow this is linked to the HP printer driver.

This discussion is on using RGB file creation techniques to output to ink jet devices. I posted the comments below the link because color management off always pops up in the conversation as it turns to non-postscript devices so I wanted to circumvent the side bar conversation.
[URL]....
First let's get this straight, I've written it and said it about a thousand times, you cannot turn off color management.
When you select simulate color management off in the default application color management dialog, CorelDRAW simply utilizes a different set of color management settings. The rules of color management never change!  The application requires guidelines on color and still must have rules that govern conversions, PERIOD.
These rules are not different, only the engines, rendering intents and profiles change. These setting in X5 and X6 can be, in some cases adjusted to simulate previous setting in versions prior to X5 that were labeled color management off, but this label in older versions (X4 and older)Â were deceptive in their nature, color management was never turned off, just set to a specific configuration.
Simulate color management off (in X5/X6) uses wide gamut cmyk simulation as the CMYK profile, it disengages the color engines (setting CorelDRAW to another internally controlled process)Â and sets the interface to RGB. It does not turn color management off.
These settings have many uses for industries such as laser engraving and screen printing separations and I support their continued use. Do not confuse this and use these settings for professional output using press work, ink jets or digital printers.

I recently upgraded from CorelDRAW 11 to X5 and have started having issues. I print primarily text and vector images on a UNIVERSAL engraving laser.
Since I upgraded there have been several times that vector images will add random vectors stretching halfway across the piece I'm engraving, completely ruining it. The vectors are completely random in their placement and occurance. I've printed to the engraver 3 times in a row with identical settings and had it do the additional random vector 2 different ways then the third time print out completely fine.

I have a problem with CorelDraw X6.
When printing 100% black on laser printer the Black is all in raster. Very strange because the same file printed from X4 /same PC and same printer/ is OK and is not in raster.
Probably the problem is somewere in X6.
I don't belive that the problem is in the color management because it's the same as my X5 and there all is OK too.

Im importing large plots from autocad in .pdf format into corel to annotate and overlay a few images , these drawings have literally thousands of lines are really slowing the computer down a lot making it impossible to do anything, is there a way to optimize these so they run any faster? i really dont want to have to flatten them into raster images as it defeats the point of it!

I have a complex (includes tints) clip art object that needs printing in a specific pantone color I just convert it to grayscale using edit>find and replace objects>color mode. then print it as a black plate and just use another color on press.
Today I had to send off artwork to another printer. Dang. How to install a macro. Import clip art to be modified to a new document, do not do this in your working document.
Use Edit>Find and Replace> Find Objects
Replace a color model or palette. Next
Leave as is except change Replace with color model to "Grayscale" Next>Replace all
Repeat 2-4 for 'outlines' if you have them.There you now have a gray scale clipart, but the fun continues!You'll need to know what pantone color you want to use. Let's say Reflex Blue. Make a square and color it Reflex blue from a pantone palette.Duplicate the square and create swatches at 90% 80% 70% etc down to white.Select these square swatches, then Windows>Color Palette>Create Palette from Selection. Save palette with a temporary name, it is only time use. Or you could call it 'Reflex Blue'Now go to this website and download the macro "limit colors" URL...
Drop it in your GMS folder in under your username to install the macro. (might have to save the drawing and restart Corel...)Once you reopen your now grayscale clipart document, Select the clipart. Run the macro (Tools>Macros>Run Macros) LimitColors.Posterize select the number of colors in your new palette if you created 10% swatches, go with 11, if you did steps of 20% then you'll do 6 (don't forget white).Run the macro LimitColors.LimitColors and select your new palette you made in step 9.

My CorelMacros.CreateColorSwatch macro has stopped dumping the swatches into whatever blank Letter-sized document I have open (which is how it used to work) and instead it is creating a new document, at 4.25" wide x 7" high, and dumping the swatches into that. Using Pantone Solid Coated, but it's doing this regardless of what palette I choose.
There is no option in the Macro's dialog box to alter or even instantiate a page size, and I cannot find in the code of the macro where to set this variable.

Is it possible on illustrator or any other programs you know of?
Â
I've tried using the live paint bucket but it won't color in the sections the way I want.Â
Â
It is a very complex sketch and it's going to take forever if I try to trace it all with vectors.

Have an issue when importing pdf files into both X5 and X6. Fonts have been converted to outline and without Ghost script installed overlapping vectors fill in with white! With Ghost script installed center of fonts like e,b,p etc fill in with font color. Convert to eps prior to importing still has the issue? Also had some objects reposition on import but fixed if converted to eps? Processing a lot of client files for output to image so this is a real problem.

No problem when printer manages color. 1-hour photo service was fine also. Printer color management is turned off, in fact greyed out. I tried different papers and icc profiles with same results. CS5, Mac OSX 10.8.3, Canon Pro 9500 Mark II.

Is there a way to apply a color to selected objects without having to search for the color in the color palette. So say if I am working with an image that has multiple colors but want to use only one of the colors in that image, is there a way to apply it without having to create or add it to the palette.

I'm running Mac 10.7.5, with Photoshop CS5. My printer is a Brother MFC-J435W. Until just recently, I've not had any problem printing anything. But a few days ago I can't get the printer to print in color off of Photoshop. Any other program (LibreOffice, Preview, etc...) it prints color images just fine. But all Photoshop documents for the past week have been coming out black and white. I've checked and double checked all the Print dialog settings, and they're all set for color. Puzzled and annoyed does not accurately express things..

I have photoshop cs4 and i'm trying to print to a Toshiba 6520c color copier. I set it to print in color but it only prints black and white. All the other cs4 products will print in color. Has anyone else run across this problem. photoshop will print to our other color copier just fine (its a konica minolta bizhub). I'm thinking it may be a communication issue with photoship and the toshiba print driver.

I got this sticker design in black and in red (#EE2A24).
Now when I print it with my own printer it looks darker and less vivid than on the screen. I put the colors to CMYK format. I also get the exact same result when I print it in RGB.
