Overview

Corel CorelDRAW Graphics Suite software box

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite is a collection of graphics software programs developed by Corel. These programs can be used to create illustrations, logos, brochures, flyers, designs, and other types of graphics. And, with the large list of supported file formats, the programs can also be used for importing and exporting graphics between many different file types.

The following applications are included in CorelDRAW Graphics Suite:

  • CorelDRAW - A vector illustration and page layout program
  • Corel PHOTO-PAINT - An image-editing application for digital photos
  • Corel PowerTRACE - A utility for converting bitmaps into vector graphics
  • Corel CAPTURE - A single-click screen capture utility
  • Corel CONNECT - A built-in content organizer

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite includes a large royalty-free graphics library of clip art, fonts, vehicle templates, and other digital images. It also comes with video tutorials and guidebooks that provide tips and techniques for working with digital images.

User Interface

The programs included in the CorelDRAW Graphics Suite are designed to work as an integrated suite, and each application has a similar look and feel. For example, CorelDRAW and Corel PHOTO-PAINT both have an editing canvas and a customizable set of toolbars. This makes it easy for users to switch between programs when editing different types of graphics. Corel CONNECT, which allows users to organize and search for images, can run in full screen mode or as a "docker" palette within CorelDRAW or Corel PHOTO-PAINT.

Capabilities

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite can create and edit both vector and raster graphics. The software supports more than one hundred different file formats, including several bitmap and vector illustration file types, as well as CAD drawings, Encapsulated PostScript (.EPS files), Microsoft Word documents (.DOC and .DOCX files), and files generated from Adobe Creative Suite programs, such as .PSD and .PDF files. Corel PowerTRACE includes image tracing tools, which allow users to convert bitmap images into vector graphics.

CorelDRAW also includes an extensive set of educational tools and documentation for users at various experience levels. The built-in guidebook introduces each application’s workspace and provides in-depth tutorials as well as insights from industry experts. The software also includes more than two hours of video tutorials.

User Community

The CorelDRAW user community is comprised of both graphics professionals and home users. Professionals typically use the software to create designs for print and Web publishing. They may also leverage the support for multiple file formats to import and export common office productivity and graphic design file types. Hobbyists and self-taught graphic designers can use the software for personal projects, such as retouching photos and creating customized documents, such as newsletters, brochures, and calendars.
