CorelDraw is a product of Canadian Corel Software Company (official Chinese website). It is a vector-based drawing and layout software.

It is widely used in many fields such as trademark design, logo production, model drawing, illustration drawing, typesetting and color separation output. As a powerful drawing software, the fact that it is so popular is illustrated by the fact that almost all PCs used for commercial design and art design have CorelDraw installed!

CorelDraw has a friendly interface design and meticulous operation. It provides designers with a complete set of drawing tools including circles, rectangles, polygons, squares, and spirals, and with shaping tools, more changes can be made to various basics, such as rounded rectangles, arcs, sectors, Star etc. At the same time, special brushes such as pressure pens, writing pens, sprayers, etc. are also provided to make full use of the computer's large amount of information processing and high random control capabilities.

To facilitate design needs, CorelDraw provides a complete set of graphics precise positioning and deformation control solutions. This brings great convenience to designs such as trademarks and logos that require accurate dimensions.

Color is the focus of visual communication in art design; CorelDraw's solid color filling provides various modes of color matching schemes and the application of spot colors, gradients, bitmaps, shading filling, color changes and operations The method is unmatched by other software. CorelDraw's color matching management solution allows display, printing and printing to achieve color consistency.

CorelDraw's text processing and image output and input constitute the typesetting function. Word processing is by far the best of all software. It supports input and output of most image formats. Share files can be exchanged seamlessly with almost any other software. Therefore, most people who use PCs for art design directly typeset in CorelDraw and then output in color separation.

CorelDraw related version information:

The current common versions are 9.0, 10.0, 11, 12, X3(13), and the latest version is X4(14).

The Chinese CorelDRAW version first launched by Corel in China was 8.0. Although it was vigorously promoted, Corel gave up the development of the simplified Chinese version of 9.0 due to the prevailing atmosphere in the Chinese market at that time. Then, a Chinese company developed a Chinese version of the software, but due to the problem of Chinese translation, the software was incompatible.

After a long period of time, although Corel developed a Chinese platform when developing version 10.0, 10.0 did not overthrow 9.0 and occupy the Chinese market because of the deep roots of 9.0.

After that, versions 11 and 12 were successively launched in 2003 and 2004, but some design companies continue to use 9.0. Compared with the previous version, 9.0 added tools such as sprinklers, and more importantly It strengthens PDF network format support and color management. Many functions have been deepened to make them more suitable for the needs of modern art design.
