CorelDRAW X6 :: Printing Vector Graphics

Aug 30, 2013

In previous versions of CorelDraw, a vector graphic could be saved as a WordPerfect Graphic with a .wpg extension.

When you pulled this graphic into MS Word, it printed as a vector graphic and was perfect. This was great for such things as signatures, and looked realistic.

BUT with subsequent versions of MSWord, the .wpg graphic is no longer recognized, so one is left having to export a .cdr vector graphic as an .emf file which is NOT vector graphics and looks pixellated.

Interestingly, I can copy a .wpg image from a  file made with Office 2007, into Office 2010 and it takes it!

Any alternative format that one can use to get Word to recognize as a vector graphic?

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X6 :: Wrapping Image / Vector Or Vector Group Around Cylinder?

Jul 29, 2012

I am having trouble doing this in my current software, Serif Drawplus, PSE, Photoplus, (I have Gimp but haven't used it ever yet).  And I am considering buying X6 for use in other projects.  So, can x6 do this in either Photo Paint with a bitmap, or in X6 with a group of Vectors?

I want to wrap a bottle with a logo.  The mesh warps aren't working for me in the above applications, and envelope warping will not work either.  Transform-Warp is not present in PSE.  I mention that because I see a tutorial for PS using that.  How would Corel X6 Suite do this?  I am considering buying the software once some questions I have about it are cleared up.  I wish Corel would make the manual and tutorial videos public.  I'd rather download the trial for actually using it rather than trying to see if some feature is present, or a workaround for a feature a competitor has.

I am also hoping to make in this project, some 10-20 different bottles with the logo on, of different sized bottles and different rotations of the bottles.  Plan D is acquainting myself with Blender, but lets hope I don't have to go that far!

Xara :: Vector Graphics For T-Shirt Printing

Sep 10, 2011

I want to get some designs I've done printed, the design are pretty simple block colors and shapes, Xara Xtreme 5 is brilliant for doing these designs. However the T-Shirt printers (spreadshirt) want to files a vectors graphics. This is what they say on the site

Transforming objects into curves
Transform all design elements and text into curves.

This is possible with Corel Draw: highlight the part of the design you want to convert. Click on 'set up' - 'transform into curves'.; You may run into a few problems when converting complex pixel graphics into curves. Try to convert as few individual objects and colors as possible. Note: vector graphics for plot printing can have up to three colors per design.

Check the minimum size of the object
After you've converted to curves, you'll have to check every element of the design to make sure that it has a minimum size of 1.5 mm. One trick for checking this: create a small circle with a diameter of 1.5 mm and lay it over the smallest parts of the design. If the area is smaller than the circle, it's too small for plot printing.

Save image as vector graphic
Unfortunately, you cannot just open a pixel graphic into a vector program and save it in a vector format (.eps.) This is not enough. You have to manually make sure the pixel graphic has been converted into curves.

Can I just export as an .eps and it'll work, or do I need to convert to editable shapes then export?

CorelDRAW X6 :: Vector Clipart Not Printing Correctly

Sep 19, 2013

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.

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X5 :: Mixing Vector Graphics And Bitmaps

Mar 14, 2011

I often create graphics in CorelDRAW export it and inserting it into my MS Word documents and finally convert my documents to pdf. When it is vector graphics, exporting as EPS works fine: The increase in file size is small and lines are displayed perfect independant of how much you zoom in the final pdf document. When I handle bitmaps, I usually export as JPG (or PNG), which works well too. My problem arise when I have a mixed vector and bitmap image. I have imported a bitmap into CorelDRAW and created some lines on top of it. I want to export it as a whole. If I export as EPS, the final result is fine, but filesize has increased considerable. If I choose to export as jpg, the filesize is fine, but the lines are getting slightly blurry. Is there a way to get the best of both Worlds - resonable filesize and perfect lines? Maybe settings in some dialog??

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X5 :: Missing Text Or Graphics When Printing?

May 9, 2011

X5 Recently have begun missing parts of print out. Tried to duplicate but appears completely random.

Output to both Full colour laser and Wide Format printers will miss either text or part of objects. Today printed the text but not the text effects.   Initially closed and reopened, rebooted, However this has become a now daily feature so regardless tried reprint from the same screen so next print has everything included.

Very costly and time consuming - print preview shows all correct but output is not the same.

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X6 :: Transparency And Vector Objects

Jul 9, 2013

This is my first post in the Corel forum and I hope I did it all right here:

First Bug ->  In my last contest work  I've tried to embed many transparency effects. While I designing my graphic I've used  (among many others) a transparency effect that named »Behind« (in my German version of CorelDRAW it's named »Hinter«). I've applied that effect to a texture bitmap graphic and it worked correctly so long the bitmap overlaid a vector shape in an ordinary way. But after I include the bitmap into the vector shape (using the vector shape as a Power Clip) obviously the used transparency effect conflict with the anti aliasing function of the vector shape and the smooth margins of the vector shape turned into rough boarders and the vector shape looked like a bitmap in a poor resolution. I guess it is only an indication error in CorelDRAW but for a designer's eyes this bug is very disturbing and should be corrected by Corel!

Second Bug -> Often I use CorelDRAW for vector illustrations and that's why I have to integrate scanned sketches (JPEG format) to build vector illustrations bases of it. Here we have another indication error or better to say a performance problem of CorelDRAW. While I using the sketch image in extended view mode the zoom function of CorelDRAW works correctly and pleasant fast. But if I switch to simple contour mode the performance of zoom mode of CorelDRAW worsens rapidly. The performance of my computer is not the problem with this because my hardware is on a high level and I use an well arranged and clean Windows 7 operating system. It would be nice if Corel is able to fix that problem because it disturbs the work flow enormous and it minishs the fun that I have while I'm using CorelDRAW!

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X6 :: Vector And Raster Line Width Changes?

Jun 11, 2012

I use and really like Corel Draw X3 (almost 3 years) and will keep that version on one P4 computer that runs win xp pro 32 bit.

X3 has been a great version that never crashes but it is getting slow as I increase the number of objects and symbols in my files.  I have a new comp with win 7 pro 64 bit running CDraw X6 and the latest epilog 64 bit driver for my mini 24.  I have been using the new X6 for 3 days .

In X3 a hairline or .001 is a vector cut.  A line width of .005 and above are raster lines and they work well in my Epilog mini 24.  I am using a 1.5" diam lens.  In X6 a .005 line will not raster but only vectors.  If I change it to .006 it becomes a raster line and will engrave OK.

The big Question:

Is there a way to make .005  raster as it did in X3?  I have hundreds of files that are all .005 line width. I don't mind changing them but would rather not.

Could this change be because of the latest Epilog 64 bit driver that I am using with win 7 pro?  Almost all my files have oddles of very fine detail (.005) and they would look a bit muddy changing the line width to .006.

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X6 :: Crashes When Assigning Vector Fills

May 12, 2013

X6 becomes very unstable when using fills with vector patterns. There is, for whatever reason, a lower limit for the size of the pattern (1 inch) that is way to high for most textures, so the only way to work around is to calculate the wanted size of the pattern tiles, enlarge the object accordingly, fill it, assign the size with object attribute and renormalize the size of the object. This used to work fine in prior versions, but X6.3 already crashed several times instantly or soon after the procedure at my site. This is not amusing.

Is there maybe another way to get past the silly one inch pattern size limit?

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X6 :: Vector To Bitmap Conversion Inaccurate

Nov 2, 2012

I'd like to create a vector graphic with precise object size and placement so that when I import into PhotoPaint I get a precise conversion.

For example (use no outlines):

make a black square 10mm in diameter create 9 colored squares 2mm in diameter placed 1mm from the edge of the black square and 1 mm from each other copy all your squares paste into photopaint setting size to 10 pixels square and turning anti-alias off what you get is not what you drew in corel draw 

Here's my example as a vector: 

and as a bitmap:

So the squares are completely the wrong size - 1 pixel larger than they should be and in the wrong position!

Interestingly if you import the same vector as a bitmap 100 pixels square it looks better - however you'll notice that the colored squares are, in fact, 21 pixels square and not 20!

The conversion process seems to make every object larger by one pixel in each dimension - not useful. I should note that this effect happens in X5 as well.

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X5 :: Laser Engravers Unable To See Vector Cut Lines

Apr 12, 2010

I have just installed Corel Draw X5 upgrading from X3. Using the program to run (2) laser engravers.

One Xenetech XLT1325 and one ULS M-300. Everything works fine until I send over a job which requires a vector cut line (hairline set to higher power to cut through plastic etc..) The vector do not appear to be recognized by either laser machine. I have tried to import the pallette that I was using in X3 but to no avail.

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X5 :: Simple Image To Vector For Laser Cutter

Oct 5, 2011

New to Corel Draw.  We just purchased a laser cutter to cut our stencils (we airbrush), but having a VERY hard time figuring out how to prep the vector images.   We follow instructions, but it seems to always have a problem.   We usually separate layers on photoshop and then trace on Corel so it can be a vector, but it doesn't seem to be working.   What is the easiest, most simple way to turn an image into a vector so we can send it to the laser software???  Only doing black and white, one layer at a time.

 Just need simple instructions, and most seem to be WAY too complicated or always have some complication. I have watched videos and read instructions, got close, but no cigar.   Sometimes I think I have a vector, but when I send it to the laser software it doesn't detect it.  I need simple instructions,  Simple simple!

Can I make an image a vector without tracing it?  Does it have to be a bitmap to be a vector?  I can't turn images into curves because the option is gray (not available).  If I select hairline it puts a hairline border around the image and I don't want it cut!

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X5 :: Saving / Exporting A Vector File That Is Uneditable

Is there a way to either save/export a vector file that can not be edited.

I know there are tracing programs available, but I want to make it as hard as can be so this logo will not get re-edited.

I designed it for a customer (belongs to us) they did not contract/pay us for it.  We do all of their clothing.  She is sponsoring an event and the event coordinator wants the logo to put it on their advertising.  Just don't want it to end up on other clothes.

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X3 :: Import SVG File And Convert To Vector Drawing?

Feb 28, 2013

Can you download a Google Docs Drawing file as a file.svg type And then import it to CorelDraw and convert it to a bunch of CorelDraw vector based lines that can be modified like any other CorelDraw line drawing?

BTW, this is a drawing of a character and is simply b&w lines & shapes on a white background.Line widths vary in the original and we want to be able to modify them even more using all the tools in CorelDraw.

I was able to open the .svg file with CorelDraw but when attempting to 'Edit' a line in the drawing I couldn't change the line width... so it isn't behaving like a CorelDraw vector drawing.

I get a raster image to convert to vector format. Here's a part of this image:

I tried tracing but the image resolution is low and I didn't get acceptable results.

I've also tried tracing the edge with line segments and Bezier curves. But when the lines close a polygon the resulting polygon is not what I expect.

What tools to use to convert it to vectors? I use CorelDraw X3 and PS 5.

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X3 :: Trace / Converting Bitmap To Vector As Lines Instead Of Objects

Mar 5, 2011

Whenever I use the Trace option to convert, the result is an image filled with closed objects.  Because I use vector images with a laser machine, and because the laser cuts everything it reads, the "double" lines (shared lines of the objects) get cut as many times as they appear.  So I have to go in and break apart and delete segments & this goes on for days.  I've tried welding, but welding makes one of the objects disappear completely.  I've tried changing from cdr to svg, exporting & importing, hoping it would simplify, but that doesn't work either.  Is there a way to have the bitmap converted to simple lines instead of overlapping objects?
