Absolutely puzzling behaviour - editing a PDF imported as bitmap just does not work. It refuses to be moved by hand, and entering new coordinates also resizes randomly (without keeping ratios). This latter behaviour is also the case for entering rotation angle. Importing the PDF as an OLE renders it completely unusable as Corel complains of a lack of memory for any process (32GB not enough as it turns out). Most fun part is that this is completely arbitrary - yesterday I was able to move this exact bitmap around, although the random resizing was still an issue. submitted by /u/Ok_Dark_4746 ..read more

"I recently downloaded CorelDraw 2024, but hadn't gotten around to using it yet because I didn't notice any significant new features that made it worth setting up. However, I was intrigued by the new Painterly tool and thought it would be a game-changer. Unfortunately, I just discovered that it doesn't come with any brushes - you have to purchase them separately to use the feature. I'm disappointed, come on Corel! at least give a few basic brushes! any thoughts? submitted by /u/coolmist23 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

I'm using Corel Draw 2018 and my printer is a Pumall-60, but Corel Draw doesn't send information, I've already checked the cables, set the minimum Thickness, nothing worked, It's not a problem with the machine because its cut test works perfectly. submitted by /u/Helpful-Resort7688 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

So for context: I recently got a new job, same field however I’m switching over from Mac/Illustrator to Windows/Corel. So far the switch has been alright, I’ve found a lot of tutorials and honestly absolutely love Coreldraw. But there are two things I just can’t seem to find the fix for. Breaking up shapes. Is it possible to break up welded shapes, without having to manually add back all the internal cutouts. In illustrator if you pathfindered something, you could just hit ungroup a few times and it would break apart. However in Corel, the best fix I’ve found is using ‘Break Curve Apart’ but ..read more

Surprisingly, I can find essentially zero scripts online for manipulating text in Corel Photo-Paint. a) I can get the command for selecting an object at a point using Recorder, but I cannot then make it set the fill color. The script that gets recorded sets the fill and the text, and if I remove the text assignment from the recording, it sets the text to empty string. I want the text left unassigned, just changed color. b) Is there a website that lists the complete API for scripts for Corel Photo-Paint so I don't have to ask here for every little thing? submitted by /u/Lyrna [visit reddit ..read more

I have a substantial number of files to export to PNG from CPT. I would like to record a script that does the export, but that doesn't work -- the script doesn't replay the mouse clicks, it tries to get "smart" and ends up saving every file as the same file name, so they all save over each other. I couldn't get Apple Script Recorder to work with Photo-Paint either. Is there any way to automate this export? submitted by /u/Lyrna [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

I have worked with Co2 lasers for a couple years now and finally bought one of my own. I have CorelDraw 2023. I installed RDWorksV8 but I can not get the CorelDraw plugin to install. I followed all the instructions online, changed my security level to medium, and selected Plug Laserwork in the RuiDa download, but it always says "Can't find the installation of CorelDraw!" If I select Locate Install Path I can't find any combination of file and version that will download. The most recent version I can select is 2021. Maybe it's just not an option for the newest versions yet? Also worth noting I ..read more
