how to delete a white background in corel draw x7 ?

Select the image (I use an image from internet as a sample), choose "edit bitmap" 8on the property bar), that will open PhotoPaint. Select the Magic Wand (with the W key) or the appropriate mask tool according with the job, and select the white background. Go to Mask menu and choose "invert" (Ctrl+Shift+I). Close the file, and select "yes" when the program ask if you want to save. That's all. It's longer to describe than follow the steps.

Hi Hakeem,
In Photoshop, I do as follows.
1. Duplicate the image on a new layer.
2. Delete the original background layer
3. Use Color Mask to select white (or any other color).
4. Use the eraser to erase the Selected color area.

Hi, Phil, on Photoshop I also follow the same steps than I use on PhotoPaint, and both use the same shortcuts: w for MagicWand, select the white background, Invert selection (Ctrl+Shift+I), and the only difference is that I need to save channel as an Alpha Channel and save as TIF. Of course, on PhotoPaint I can also save as an Alpha Channel, if I want to save on PhotoPaint instead to edit inside CorelDRAW. On your workflow I believe that you need to save as PSD in order to maintain the transparent background (JPG file format doesn't allows transparent background).
