Notice the flickering when selecting print preview?
CorelDraw X6 disappears for a second or so to display print preview - showing all background windows.
Background: I work IT here at a trophy shop and we do a lot of artwork for plaques and acrylic/glass awards. I am versed in IT but not CorelDraw in-particular.
Problem: Occasionally, we have a problem with the font drop-down menu. The artist will attempt to select a new font for a selected text, and the drop-down menu will flicker as you move the cursor over the fonts, and the preview window to the side trails (where you see the old text preview with the new text preview drawn over it) turning off the font preview fixes the issue, but that preview is essential according to my artists.
This file will crash when I try to print or print preview.

No problem printing other files.Btw, from Document Properties, it shows that there are two RGB fills, which I cannot find.
That's the reason why I go into Print Preview to look at the separations.
I just installed X4 on new computer running Windows 7 Pro 64 bit. Have 16GB of ram. Every time I go to print preview it says that "Corel Draw has stopped working" This is the info on the error.Â

When I attempt to view text with no fill and a hairline outline in the print preview nothing shows. Is their anyway around this?
View 2 Replies View RelatedWe are having issues with Corel X6: when we try print preview, the print preview window opens, but after we click print, it just crashes and that's it.
Both corel and Windows are updated, and the machine is clean.
I'm currently working on an XP 32 bit system with AMD Athlon 64 3200+
CorelDraw is displaying a print preview but is otherwise completely idle. It has finished displaying the preview, so it is just waiting for user action but has nothing else to do.
Photopaint in another window was running extruciatingly slow so I checked task manager. CorelDraw.exe was showing to be using 98% of the CPU.
On further investigation, this happens only when the print preview is on the screen. I close the print preview, return to CorelDraw design screen and CPU is 0% when idle. I do another print preview -- 98% CPU again.
I'll try it later on a quad core system, but it seems that print preview should not be hogging the CPU when idle waiting for operator action.
I have a rather large job, a book with 370 pages. when we want to reprint w/o any changes i would like to turn off the print preview to eliminate the delay.
How to bypass the print preview?
I've been searching for this for over a week & finally thought I'd better go to the experts!
I have a 2 page document that has CMYK on one side and 100% Gayscale (with 2 Grayscaled bitmaps) on the other side. My problem is that when I go to print preview it shows the Grayscale as CMYK Separations. My printer is counting it as color instead of grayscale so we are being charged much more than the grayscale would be. I haven't changed anything in my color profile and actually deleted my ColorSettings.xml and rebooted Corel Draw to reset the color profile default. Still no change.
What I am used to (& what I need) is for the print preview to show my page 1 as CMYK separations and my page 2 as black like it used to. I do a lot of ads and need to be able to determine if there is any color in my document when there shouldn't be.
Problem number 2 is that around my grayscaled bitmaps when my document is printed there are thin black lines showing up where the edge of the photo is. None of which shows up in print preview.
I am using Corel Draw X5, Windows 7 - 64 Bit
I was playing around with my settings and did something that is keeping me from printing. When I go to print preview, the page is blank. I have tried opening up jobs that I successfully printed before and they also show and print blank. Everything looks normal in the work area. I just can't print.
View 14 Replies View RelatedI would like to use the label print feature of Corel DRAW X5. When I do the following steps:
Choose File -> New...
Create a new file with A4 size and 300 dpi
Choose Layout -> Page Setup....
Goto "Document" -> "Label" in the options tree
Select "Labels" (instead of "Normal Paper")
Select a predefined label layout (problem exists also with a custom label layout)
Click on OK -> New page with one single label as the size has been created
Drawing my label
Choose File -> Print Preview
I expected to see the "matrix" of labels (e.g. 4x10 labels), but I only see one single label in the middle of the page.
Just upgraded from X3 to X6. Â Still getting used to it, but so far so good.
On one layout, some items on a printable layer do not appear on the Print Preview. Â The page contains a monochrome bitmap, some text and a curve. Â Only the bitmap appears on the print preview, yet everything prints.
It doesn't happen with every job. Â Not a big deal on this job, but there will soon come a time when I need to know what will and will not print.
I just installed X5 and I'm opening files from ver 11. Â It's all opening fine, but when I click on anything, the screen flashes pale blue. Â When I look at a print preview - it's ALL a blue tint. Â Can't work with that. Â I'm running Windows 8.

I have lost the print preview after 6.2 update. Is there any solution or am missing something at.

I am ready to print my stuff. Â But I have to manually use the pick tool in the print preview window to move my pages around so that they will print the stuff in the center of the pages.
I do my print run. And then save the "Print style".Â
Come back the next day and I have to re-do all the adjusting of the work again so that it all gets printed. Â I would have thought that saving a print style would make it so that next time everything is the same as before.
I am wondering, if is possible to move content of print preview window. View picture for better understanding. In version X4 it was possible.

When I use Print Preview in X6 the print options are not saved when I exit Print Preview to make adjustments.
I make the correction - go back into Print Preview and all options have gone back to default. Is there anyway of correcting this.
I cannot see the full spectrum of my document size in print preview. I have my document setup as 8ft. X 5 ft.
 But when i try to see it in print preview it only shows my document between 3 1/2 ft. to 4 1/2 ft.

When attempting to print a photo, it can take anywhere from 5 to 15 minutes for the print dialog box to open up. It takes SO LONG that it appears that Photoshop has frozen, but it has not. The print dialog box opens eventually. This started about 2 months ago. I have looked at all preferences, assigned more RAM to Photoshop, uninstalled and reinstalled the entire suite, ran all updates, uninstalled and reinstalled the printer drivers - all to no avail.
Â
I am at a loss as to why it would take SO LONG for the print dialog box to open after selecting print? I thought there may be a problem with the print spooler or print queue, but the slowness happens BEFORE the print back system is touched. The print queue is empty, and there is nothing stuck in there. I've checked.
So I am working on this document and it has silver background. I go to print preview (Photoshop cs3 and cs4 on Vista) and I get color looking more like bronze looking but when I do print, it comes out just like it should (in working mode which is Monitor RGB with Proof colors checked).
This setting is the only one I've used to make sure image/psd looks exactly like what it should when printing. I tried the default Working CMYK with and without Proof colors but it's still showing me the bronze look instead of silver. I've looked on the net and no exact easy fix for this was found. I really really appreciate any help.
Another simple question is regarding size. I'm working on a document size of 17.5 x 8.7 inches and the actual Banners will be printed at size 175 x 87 inches (5 banners each at 35inch wide but combined into a big one). So essentially, I'm working at 10% the size of what the final print will be and my file size is 760mgs. You can only imagine how big the file would be if I work on the actual size.
I received an Autocad file from another person, opened it with Autocad 2011 LT, and it looks fine. But when I go to print preview all the lines are very thick, making the detail of the drawing difficult to see. I've tried manually changing the lineweights but it has no effect on some of the layers. Is there an easier way to fix this other than recreating layers?

How do I adjust the brush pallet to show all the brushes I have? Also, is it possible to have a preview of the brushes without actually selecting a particular brush?

I'm using autocad 2000 and I have a problem printing & plotting. The print, plot preview only shows a section of the drawing. What settings do I need to change for the entire drawing to print for the paper size I need.

So, I have a "Fit Screen" image open with no canvas.  I select "Print Size", and it reduces the image size, but leaves a huge expanse of canvas that I have to drag in to remove.

View 4 Replies View RelatedWhen printing I unchecked center image in PScs5 and reduced the size of my image, using the achor in the preview window, to run a test print. I'm printing to an Epson 3880. Once I ran the test print, I returned to PS and my original image. Selected print and only the preview of the test print is there. The orginal sized image will not load in the preview window. I have deleted the PS preferences and restarted twice. Even after moving to another machine, the profile seems to be embedded in my image. The same preview image is on the three machines I moved to.Â
