If you take your text and convert it to curves it stops being text (which is a special kind of object) and becomes just shapes. Text is a whole tutorial by itself but I will mention just one thing that is important and not obvious: “convert to curves”. So you either have to do the settings before you type anything or go back and select all your text and change the settings. Note that if there is no text selected then the settings apply to future text. Once you select the tool some settings appear at the top of the page which allows you to set the font and the size and various other attributes of the text.
The text tool (11th tool on the left, looks like the letter A) allows you to write text (see image). Again, if you are using this file at techshop and you have version X6 you want to save it as a "coreldraw presentation exchange format 5.0". If you want to save a different file type you would use file->save as and use the “save as type” pull down to select what type of file you want. Once you’ve specified the file name you can use ctrl-S or click on the disk icon at the top of the page or use file->save. To save a document you can use file->save as. This means that all the locations on the page have a negative Y value. Keep in mind that the horizontal ruler increases to the right but the vertical ruler increases in the up direction. You should also “zero” your rulers by clicking on the corner where the 2 rulers meet and dragging it to the corner of the page (see image). If you are using a laser etcher, you should set these to 24”x18”. Next to that pull-down there are 2 boxes with horizontal and vertical dimensions of the page. Pull it down and select “custom” (see image). At the upper left side there is a drop down that might say “letter” or “broadsheet” or “custom”. There is a rectangle on the screen with a drop shadow behind it. In this dialog box you can set the name of the document and various other things but for now just say “OK”. This will cause a dialog box (see image). To create a new document you can do file->new or ctrl-n or you can click on the icon in the extreme upper left corner of the window, just below the “file” menu.
DXF coordinates are always without dimensions, so that the reader or user needs to know the drawing unit or has to extract it from the textual comments in the sheets.Īdobe Illustrator, Corel PaintShop Photo Pro, Corel WordPerfect Office, Inkscape, LibreOffice, Microsoft Visio.When you first open CorelDraw there may be one or more dialog boxes which you probably want to just close. Certain object types, including ACIS solids and regions, are not documented. The CDR file is a ZIP-compressed directory of several files, including XML-files and the RIFF-structured riffdata.cdr with the familiar version signature in versions X4 (CDREvrsn) and X5 (CDRFvrsn), and a root.dat with Corel Draw X6, where the bytes 9 to 15 look slightly different.Īs AutoCAD has become more powerful, supporting more complex object types, DXF has become less useful. Versions of AutoCAD from Release 10 and up support both ASCII and binary forms of DXF.
CorelDraw file formats include CDR, CorelDraw Compressed (CDX), CorelDraw Template (CDT), and Corel Presentation Exchange (CMX).ĪutoCAD DXF (Drawing Interchange Format, or Drawing Exchange Format) is a CAD data file format developed by Autodesk for enabling data interoperability between AutoCAD and other programs.
