CorelDRAW X5 :: Not Saving Links Correctly?
Jul 18, 2011
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.

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?

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.

I just created an eBook and also created a custom Table of Content page for it and linked the menu buttons to it's respective destination pages. They are all working fine on the desktop but when i check it on the mobile device they don't work correctly.
When I click on any menu on my phone it just opens the 1st Page While this same menu is working fine On Desktop.

I'm using a pattern in a design for a print ad I'm working on. I'm working at 300 DPI in CMKY mode (16 Bit) and the pattern I'm using isn't being reproduced correctly when the file is saved in any format.
I've changed various settings, tried working in RGB etc at different bit rates, but it hasn't affected the final output. I've used patterns in designs pretty regularly and don't remember having encountered the problem before.

I have a problem. I need to redesign the catalog for a certain company. Actually, it's a minor update, but the previous catalog, only available as a PDF has many clickable links inside it. When I open this PDF in CorelDRAW X5, update it and resave it, the links are gone. Is there a way to import the PDF with links, and save it also with the same links?done yesterday

I have a multi page document that contains links to various large tiffs. The filesize of cdr is decent to work with and it preserves them until I publish it to pdf .
Any changes made to document after this operation will increase the document file (at the next save) like the images are embedded , not linked. However, in the links panel still show up as links, but properties of images mention their full resolution instead of a thumbnail size, and working space enhanced view show that.
I tried for test with one page and only one image and confirmed this behaviour.I couldn't find any solution to this and I keep closing the document after publishing and open it again for changes.

I'm reconstructing an old document originally developed with PageMaker. I've recreated a half dozen pages hopefully with more uniform techniques. The original line art for the pages was created in AutoCad and some were scans. To bring them into InDesign some of the art is now in psd format and some of the newer art is in Illustrator AI format.
I've noticed that the pages with photoshop art print pretty quickly (about 30 seconds). The ones with Illustrator art take much longer (about 1:30 seconds). They go through a flattening process.
I print these 50 page books on demand and that additional time would add about an hour.
I guess the question is whether this is normal and to be expected or not. If it is I'll likely turn everything into raster before going into InDesign. That, however, seems like quite a bit of extra work. Going from AutoCad to Illustrator (to add stroke) then to PhotoShop to change to raster and then into InDesign seems like a pretty convoluted work flow.

How do I maintain links and bookmarks in a PDF? I recently created a multi-page document in X5 with links and exported to PDF. All of the links worked successfully in the resultant PDF.
Yet when I imported the PDF into X6 (and X5) for editing, the links had all gone. I'll need to edit on a fairly regular basis and I don't want to re establish the links (a lot) every time.

I am running X6 on Win 8 Pro. I Externally Link a picture into a CD file using UNC naming. I also Externally link using a mapped network drive and a local drive. In none of these can i get the Edit Links option to not be grayed out.
I am using the FIle --> Import --> External Link option to insert the image. I have tried changing the linked image, closing the CD file and the reopening it and it does not update the graphic. I am stuck with the original which is what i do not want.
I have gotten this to work on older versions of CD and have not a clue what is going wrong now.

Sometimes I am working with "heavy" files, images of huge size and when I thrown them to corel it really starts to slow down. My question now is, if I remember correctly there is an option when you import an image to corel it just keeps the path of the image and adds the image on corel on very poor quality just for you to work easily. When you are finished you just make something and the paths of the images are replaced with the originals.Where can I find that option?

I would like to have a quick way to access some T-Shirt proof images quickly.
What is the best way? Toolbar, docker?
I saw the scrapbook docker, but then I have to scroll through all my files. Not sure if it remembers a folder on open and close..

Even the most simple documents are not correctly exported/imported from/to CorelDRAW.
Just try to enter some graphical text using two different (uncommon) fonts... Export as SVG and re-import the file as a new document into CorelDRAW...
@ Corel: Either drop the SVG format from your import/export formats drop down box or get the standard correctly implemented.

Trying to import an SVG file from this Wikipedia page I noticed that the text of the Brasilian flag does not get imported correctly by CorelDRAW X6.
Similar errors occur for:
Wikipedia, Spain flag
Wikipedia, Portugese flag
Wikipedia, Chinese flag
I pay for seriously expecting Corel staff members to not just read in here but to fix Corel programs' problems I report.But they do nothing.

Microsoft OLE doesn't seem to work flawlessly in CorelDRAW:
Create a new CorelDRAW file
Select menu item "Edit > Insert New Object ..."
Select "Microsoft Excel Worksheet" from the dialog box. This creates an Excel Worksheet within the CorelDRAW file.
Edit the Excel Worksheet to contain some text in the Worksheet's cells.
Alter the font for some of the cells.
Select menu item "File > Publish to PDF ..."
You will notice that in the PDF file the text is all rubbish:
I have added a CorelDRAW X6 file to this post. Unfortunately this forum doesn't allow for file attachments being bigger than 256k. So I had to upload the CorelDRAW file as an "image" by renaming its file extension. ... Please right-click on above image to download the CorelDRAW file and delete the ".png" file extension from the name in order to download the CorelDRAW file correctly. The correct file name should be "CorelExcelImport.cdr" on your hard disk.

I'm using CorelDraw x6. I imported some AI clipart into my drawing. While the clipart looks fine on screen, when printing the image to my HP Color LaserJet some of the clipart doesn't render correctly (see attachment). The dark brown area of the bell is jagged and the black lines should not be there. How to correct it so the images print out nicely?
BTW, when printing to an HP ink jet or converting the image to PDF then printing it looks fine. Only on the color LaserJet does this happen.

I cannot get the Envelope tool to work correctly in Draw X5. Rather that go into a lenghty explanation, see below. Notice that some of the rectangles don't "bend" as they should. I converted all text to curves and then welded all objects together. However, it acts the same if they are grouped instead.
Draw X5 service pack 2.

i upgraded to CS6 photoshop and now i am having problems with multichannel photoshop files not importing correctly into CorelDraw x6. Either no channels appear at all or some will be missing or misnamed.
i realize that X6 may not have the latest and greatest import filters for the latest in Adobe products.
i have even saved the psd files as rgb and grayscale, hoping the issue was just multixhannel but that did not work.

I just used the help file for the first time in ages and noticed all the links to the graphics are broken hence no diagrams etc. I tried to search out where they are usually stored and it gives some weird Address under properties. It's a vba so suppose it's a database? How do I restore the links without having to do a re-install?
As to the pen: How do you stop the annoying over-the-top predictive curve that happens past the node in the next section after a long drag to form the first curve. i.e. you simply want to draw a straight line after dragging out a curved section previously and you get this unmanageable curve to deal with ?

currently getting by with v11 on winXP..Having a recent problem which I hope one of you can identify. I undoubtedly caused this problem myself by while trying to set up multiple monitors with different screen resolutions, dpi's, font viewing sizes, etc... but now I don't know exactly what setting caused it or how to get back to normal.
Here's the problem - two dialog boxes are displaying very skewed as shown in the screen-shots below. It's only these two dialogs I seem to have trouble with. It's like their popup windows are wrong proportions. No settings I change in my monitor setups seem to correct the situation.

When I export vector graphics to RGB/sRGB and open the pdf in another software (like Serif Page Plus, Adobe etc.), the color values are variying a little bit.
For example, my gray value of a logotype in Corel was 118, 115, 113. Now I export as pdf (many logical!! setting of CM tried!!!), any other software that opens the document - also CORRECT CM settings - values are 117, 115, 112. --- The same light variations nearly anytime with any RGB color. Not possible to create vector pdfs of logos for my clients correctly this way! Really bad.
Instead of starting a discussion about Color Management Settings, could any professional, maybe a Corel member check this behaviour in practice and give me a feed-back!? - In the best case let me know the complete settings for Corel CM and pdf Export to get the RGB pdf export done correctly.
(I am currently using X4, but know that same behaviour from X3 and passed again hours to try really all reasonable CM and export combinations, at least I think so. Windows7 and WindowsXP)

I have a problem exporting a file to TIFF format as the text spacing becomes "corrupted".The text is just a simple text block, pick any font you want (i.e. Arial). I export the file as TIFF format with the following changes of note:
Do not select "Maintain Aspect Ratio".Change the vertical scaling to something like 140% (nothing magical about 140%, just something that stretches it out enough)
That's it. When the text comes out, the letters are all stuck together, either overlapping or touching. This happens with TIFF, PNG or BMP format, but it does not happen when I export GIF or JPG format. Of course, converting the text to curves prior to export also produces the correct result.
Of course, the reverse also happens if I scale vertical to less than 100%, the characters get spaced out farther than they should. I cannot really convert to PNG then to TIFF as I need to maintain the CMYK colorspace on this one. I also do not "pre-scale" the image correctly in CorelDraw first because I actually need to export the image to several different aspect ratios and I would like to maintain only one "master" source image.

FontNav is still not showing all fonts correctly. My screen grab shows FN displaying Cambria without regular which as you can see from the CDraw window behind is definitely there on my system. At least now FN isn't preventing the font styles it can't see being used.
I have the latest update 3 of x6 and have deleted and remade FN's font database. The problem appears both on my Win7 64bit desktop and Win7 32bit laptop.

I created a couple of icons with Greenfish Icon Editor, which works reliably for me, to assign to macros. They were saved as 16 x 16 32-bit icons. But when I try to assign them, they appear larger and I can't fit them into the space allotted for an icon; in other words, they get clipped.

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.
