I use romcat to catalogue and find files that we create. I've noticed that if X5 is installed on windows XP the save dialogue shows place to insert 'keyword's and 'notes' as before, however if X5 is installed on Vista or Windows 7 the field are now listed as 'Title' and 'Subject' and cannot be used by Romcat. Under a Vista or Windows 7 installation when a 'save as' to an X3 or earlier version is used, the dialogue box refers to 'tags' and 'comments' which are read correctly by Romcat.
Is there any way the save dialogue can include' keywords' and 'notes' without saving as an earlier version?

As a recent user of Photoshop, I need to attach details such as keywords to an image. This will usually be a TIFF or JPEG.. I'm new to Gimp but see in the Properties category I can enter the sort of info I want but when I try to save everything this info just disappears and obviously is not embedded in the file.
where I work I have to take photos of bank notes and use them for promotional purposes. we have permission to do this, but my Corel PhotoPaint software wont let me use the images!
How can I move many nested keywords back into the main listing of keywords? I was up late a few nights ago and never noticed that about 80 new keywords were being placed as (nested?) under another keyword. How can I get them back from under that keyword and into the main keywrod list?
Lightroom has a collection containing all images without keywords.
As soon as I apply a keyword to images they instantly disappear from the collection. This is alright when I only want to apply a single keyword, but how do I stop it happening when I want to apply multiple keywords to the same image(s)?
I am trying to export file to CMX format, but the software won't accept it, probably because X6 is too new. I used to be able to import, but I do not remember if it was X4 or X5.
I chose "Save As", and in there I can only use old format if I am saving as CDR, but as CMX I won't get any option about saving in old format.
(btw, the other software ONLY accept CMX and the very much inferior WMF..)
I just installed a new larger HD disk in my computer, then reinstalled my old Corel Draw 4 program. It installed OK, seemed to worked OK, and it printed OK. But when I tried to save a file I got a message saying it couldn't save because there was not enough room on the disk. The path was correct and there is over 115GB free.
When doing the install I did notice that it did not recognize the size of the disk correctly, but it showed plenty of free space at the time.
how to covert a PDF file to CorelDraw? I have tried saving the PDF as an EPS and then opening it in CorelDraw, but it only displays a grey box which states "Illustrator 7.eps".
I'm having a problem where my settings are not being saved.
I like to have the font be Arial, 12 Point and centered. When I upgraded to SP3, I had to start Corel X5 while holding the F8 key because it would keep crashing. After this, I set everything up the way I like it, but it's not keeping my setting for font, size and alignment. It keeps reverting back to Arial, 24 point, Left every time I restart Corel X5.
The way I try to save the settings is in a blank document, I change the font to 12 and X artistic and paragraph text, then I change the alignment to center and X artistic and paragraph text. Then I click CTRL-J, Document - check Save options... then click ok. Previously this always worked. Under SP3 it doesn't.
Is there anyway to save dimensioning settings, like origin offset, point size, arrow type? When I dimension an object, I have to reset all of these items each time I create a new dimension. I realize that this isn't a CAD program, but why give us this nice tool if you can't save the settings from one dimension to the next?
I have files which I wish to print with particular settings - Layout > Imposition Layout = Book ; Preference > Features = Landscape. I 'Save As' these settings as Print Style 'BOOK'. When I open a new file and select 'BOOK' from the drop down menu, nothing changes. The print style remains the same as default.
I have several cards that i have designed in CorelDraw x6 (64 bit)
Each CorelDraw card file varies in size from between 5 & 15mb each ...i have exported each as jpegs & they look great onscreen!
i need to get the cards printed now & the printer asked for a pdf file with the cards files in
I have hardly ever used pdf's at all so know very little
Using the Corel preset "Export to pdf" option in CorelDraw the pdf file size comes out at 12mb for EACH INDIVIDUAL card ....is there anyway to get the pdf at the same quality & size as my jpegs??
Having a problem with a document i created that contains instructions how to use one of our customers application, the document has an index that points to different pages but also a few urls that point to servers or into jboss application servers(long url) when i save the cdr file and export to pdf the links are not always right, the index pointing to top of page 5 now points to a https url and one of the https urls can point to top of page ...
This is rather frustrating since a simple edit requires me to verify all the links, for instance a url that points to a customer internal wiki page is correct in the cdr file but wrong in the pdf.
I have tried different settings for the pdf export but i haven't seen any difference.
I have noticed that links are changed even when i just save the cdr file and reopen it later, not all but some, seems rather random which ones.
Running windows 7 64 bit 4 gig ram, corel draw x5 is updated with sp3, the cdr file contains 29 pages at this point.
Iam worked at a workshop that we cut and engrave metals sheets like stainless steel and copper and am using corel draw X5 for editing , drawing and exporting cut orders to cutting machine .
I exchange cdr files with other workshops around me that they use earlier versions of corel draw like ver 11. Did theirs a way that i can save all cdr files in corel draw X5 in ver 11 with out choosing in every time i save the file version option ?
I have a new Corel product...Graphics Suite X4 Home version operating on Windows 7. I have designed several flyers and attempted to save as a PDF file to send to an associate. However the PDF option is not available in the selection box.
So I attempted to download Service Pack 2 for Suite X4 but the installation fails on three attempts.
Is there any other way to save X4 files to X3 without going into the save dialog and changing the version you want it to be saved in? Also Is there any other way for me to convert all rgb in a document to cmyk without selecting the objects or using the object manager?
I get a message stating that "Valid workspace file not found at the path specified" I know the fix for this is to hold down F8 while starting up to reset it. The thing is that I set up so many specific things to my work that it takes me hours to get it back to the way I want it (i.e. Default font, color, menu layout etc.).
I can save this default in a separate location, and load it in should I get this error message again, thereby avoiding having to set it all up from scratch.
I am having an issue saving file changes. I can create a file and save it, but if I make a change and try to save it again I get an error that says that the file is open elsewhere.
I have a CDR file and I tried to export it as an SVG. It's supposed to look like this:
PNG:
[URL]
But CorelDraw X4 saves it like this:
SVG:
[URL]
The main problem is that the gradient isn't centered. I'm not an SVG expert, but I played around with the XML and I couldn't get the gradient to center. Are there any settings in CDRX4 I can change, or is it possible to edit the XML to make it centered?
I'd never had problems with previous versions of corel draw with this. I make a drawing in rgb colours and save it as svgz. Even with a simple picture like a few squares. In x6 I get the mention "unvalid id's found".
I can't figure out what I have to do to prefend that mention.
I just recently found out about the "Adding Notes" feature in CS5. I was able to add notes. However, when I saved the photo as a jpeg, and then re-opened it -the notes were not there.
Am I doing something wrong or will notes only re-appear when the photo file is saved to a psd or tif?
how to hide notes? I use notes a lot when I work with someone else on the same file and I place the little postits near or exactly on top of the area I'm writing about. Is there a way to hide those like you can hide guides? I'm working on a particularly note-rich file and it's starting to look like a porcupine.
I have several spaces with the same types of case work. But instead of having each type have a general key note, I would like each instance of the type have a unique key note similar to the way doors work.
I am using CorelDRAW X6. I am trying to export a graphic that includes several spot colors. The spot colors are from a library that a printer provided me. It is in the same location as my pantone library, and summa spot color library.
When I export as a pdf or eps to send to the printer it converts the spot color to rgb. If I have a pantone color or summa color in the file they stay as a spot but this new spot library does not. If I have these spot colors in a gradient they will stay as spot colors.
When exporting I have the color management checked to use document color settings, output colors as Native, and I have embed the color profile.
Using X6 and for some reason when i save a document as a jpg or pdf and then upload it via email attachment and or forum attachment it shows up COMPLETELY different than what the program file looks like. I design in CMYK and know monitors show RGB but i have NEVER had a issue like this when using Adobe programs but i have switched to Corel and am having this issue.What i end up having to do is take a screen shot then paste it into MS PAINT, yes PAINT and then save it as a jpg there for it to display correctly colorwise. This works for jpegs but not pdf's with multiple pages that need to be sent to my designers and printers.
The saved file looks like it should on my desktop and laptop and looks like crap on my iphone, ipad and email attachments etc on the customers end.
I have embedded the cmyk profile, tried proof colors on and off. Nothing changes it except for saving in RGB mode which throws the pdf's off as they often go directly to my printers for production.
