outline-transparency.PNG
I've received floorplans from a client in PDF format. When I import or open the PDF, all of the outlines are coming in with a transparency applied to them (see attached png). I can't work with the file like this because DRAW is just choking. There are thousands of these lines and I can't figure a way to remove the transparency from all the outlines.
I have an .eps file I am trying to import into corel 11 and it keeps coming over as an image and not vector. I also am getting error messages when I use the filters.

I need a plug in for photoshop 7 that will help in creating outlines from the graphics I import into photoshop.
The graphics are usually jpg.
I have a small problem: I have several images which I need to import / combine with an hole pattern. Then I just need the outlines of the holes (each color) for laser cutting. Doing by hand and coloring each dot is difficult, how to make this in some few steps ?

I tried changing the Color Management Settings to Minimal Color Management which is suppose to preserve the original color when opening, importing, and pasting, but that doesn't work.
I'm unable to open/import .ai files into corel x4. Getting "corrupted file" error.

Next I made the same changes through property bar, it worked. Through further experiments I observed it only make transformations through enter if we give x=val and move to y=val through tab and press enter. Or if we directly give new value to y and press enter. The property bar doesn't has this problem.
2. Transformations dockers problem of showing wrong position on y-axis. Screen shot attached.
3. Open and Import dialogue boxes don’t get cancelled as we hit ESC key. This problem remains as is from v16.0.0.707.

I'm playing with the 3D tools in Photoshop CS5 Extended for a friend. He provided an .obj file of a tool part and it opens just fine as a complex, shaded object.
Question: Is there a way to generate simple outlines of the object and export those outlines as paths to Illustrator?
Just installed LR4, when choosing "edit in" PSE, the Elements program opens, but the picture does not display.
View 6 Replies View RelatedHow do I snap (objects or, especially, guidelines) to the outer edge of an outline? The guideline always snaps to the edge of the object, if the outline is behind, or within the outline if it's in front of the object.
I usually employ workarounds such as converting the outline to an object but that's not always convenient.
OK. I know how to make a Pen Outline scale with an object when I create the pen outline. But is there a way to give the scale with object attribute to all pen outlines in a compound object such as a vector clipart I purchase (or even some of the Corel clipart)? The most recent example is a state highway map I just downloaded. All the roads, lakes, rivers, county lines, etc. are created with pen outlines, but none of them scale when I scale the map larger or smaller. As you can guess there are literally tens of thousands of them on the map. Is there a way to make all of them scale without also making them all the same color and thickness?

View 7 Replies View RelatedI often need to convert all outlines to objects in a design before I send it out or when I create a flash base for screen printing. I know how to convert and outline to an object, but my question is:
How do i convert ALL outlines to objects at the same time? Is there a function I'm missing or possibly a macro? Also, I don't want to have to select every outline myself. I'm already doing that and ctrl/shift/Q. Also, If I'm forced/limited to doing it myself manually, there's always the chance that I miss one. I cannot believe that this isn't a native function.
We get .eps files from a customer and the fonts have been converted to "outlines" or "curves". This one font they used is Avant Garde Condensed and whenthe lowercase letters "f" and "i" are used together like in the word "fish" are connected together with no dot over the "i" (see attachment).
My question is this:
Is this supposed to look this way (see attachment) is this some sort of special character in the Avant Garde font family? Or is this some sort of freak accident caused by converting fonts to outlines?
I am working in CorelDraw X3 and when I publish to PDF they are coming out blank? I have made many before and they are fine, I know to position it in the page, but still nothing? I am using Windows 7? By doing it through the 'prepare to bureau service' they work fine except the file size is massive?

I have drawn a shape as you will see in the attached. The white 'arches' are not there as objects in their own right, they are as a result of the orange objects and the yellow ring.
I will be passing this to a laser engraving machine and need to cut-out each object seen in its own right, including the 'arches'. Clearly in a normal printer I could just put a coloured circle behind the other objects but on a laser I need the actual shape.
I don't want to manually try to fit a bezier as the cut-out parts need to be a perfect fit as it is going to be an inlay. Each colour will be a different type of wood. Is there a macro tool that would do it?

View 5 Replies View RelatedRecently any outlines that I put on Text or Objects has been coming out "Notched".
I cannot be certain when this started happening, but i have tested files I have created in X6, saved down to X3 and printed from a different computer (running X3) with the same result.
Even PDFs created from this installation of X6 have this outline issue.
I have uninstalled my printer and reinstalled to see if that was the issue (HP Color LaserJet 3700). This same issue also occured on a different HP Color Laserjet 4650. These are both using PCL 5 drivers, as installed by Windows 7.
I have also tried different "Line Caps" settings, but no luck.
This nex screen shot is a scan of the printout of the above file. as you can see the text outlines and box outlines are notched.
This is a screen cap of the settings i have used, although it doesnt matter if I use, behind fill or not, the result is the same.
When I export a page as Illustrator CS4, I choose the option "Convert outlines to objects" but it doesn't seem to do what I expect. It does fix the issue of missing arrowheads on lines, but it doesn't convert the outlines to fills as I expected -- is that correct? I wish there was an option to convert lines to fills on export.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a large group of objects, all one color. I need to make a subtle change to the color. Is there a easy way to change all the colors in a group of object to another specific color?

View 10 Replies View RelatedOutlines don't scale globally with objects. I have a crest with a bunch of elements in it. Some have outlines and some don't. It's 3 inches. I would like to enlarge it to 10 or whatever. If I select the crest and enlarge it, the outlines don't scale. The only option I've ever known of was to take them all individually and check off the scale outline on each object. It's a real workflow killer.
I spent the day reacquainting myself with CorelDraw. This and other similar show stoppers remind me of how difficult it is to make the switch from Illustrator back to CorelDraw. So how are people dealing with this? Are you simply taking however much time it takes to change each individual element to scale with object or is there a preference somewhere that I'm missing? This is a big stumbling block for me. There are a lot of major features I know I'd be leaving behind but there are others that I'd have access to. It's the little things like this that allow me to fly rather than crawl.
way to create an outline contour cut for decals? Iv'e been doing this for years and it's been a headache. I have the graphic/text, duplicate it with a thick outline. Say .25". Then Convert Outline To Object. The problem I have is that if it's a complexe graphic or line of text, a number (sometimes a large number) of the nodes are broken and I have to join them. And CD sometimes adds way too many nodes. So I have to spend a long time deleting unnessesary nodes to clean it up.
Iv'e had people suggest to use the Arrange, Shaping, Boundery function. But that doesn't allow me to make the boundery any further away from the art.
After using Powertrace to trace a bitmap, I zoom in to the outline and can only see one line.
However when I export as a DXF, my cam program always says it is removing overlapping outlines. Thing is there are quite a few double outlines left (very close to each other but not exactly parallel). Because these remaining outlines did not cross, my cam program did not remove them.
Because of the remaining double outlines, the cam program basically doubles up on the cut path.
If I trace manually with the bezier tool and shape tool, I don't have this problem. It's only when tracing with Powertrace.
After applying drop shadow to a text, I find no direct way to edit the text without removing the drop shadow. I've tried the text tool, Ctrl-Click, Alt-Click, Shift-Click, etc, maybe I missed something.

I have a Toshiba laptop with Windows 7. It has a 500GB HD, 4GB RAM, 16" screen and CorelDRAW X5 and Summa's WinPlot bridge software installed. Everything runs perfectly.
I want to be able to cut vinyl letters from my Summa D75R vinyl cutter and then to cut a different colored outline to be applied over the top of those letters. The letters themselves, that is, the main body of the letters, I can cut with no problem.
I know that I will have to separate the two elements and cut the letters from one file and the outlines from a different file. As an experiment I created a single word with a color. I then created an outline for that word. I deleted the body of the letter leaving only the outline.
I then did a "Convert to Curves" on the outline and imported the image into the WinPlot software that my Summa D75R vinyl cutter uses. I sent the image to the cutter but it cut it as a solid letter. It did not make a double-line cut as it would have to do to make the image an outline.
I just started using CD X5. I want to buy a cycling skinsuit, similar to this one: URL....
I have a chance to design it myself and send a .cdr file to the company that manufactures it. I have some questions. I drew a basic shape of the suit and split it into 3 objects like this: URL....
Black legs is object 1, middle 2-color part is object 2 and white top is object 3, I wasn't able to fill the middle part with a black-white pattern unless I made it an object. I surely know there is a way to do it all with only 1 object that is divided into 3 sections but how? Smart fill works when you just draw some lines that form a closed contour but regular fill doesn't. Secondly, how to use a pattern fill that doesn't affect outlines? Third question is how to nudge only part of an object, for example if I want to make sleeves longer? Now I'm able to move the whole object only.
