Do you mean CorelDRAW 5 or CorelDRAW X5 (version 15.x)? I ask because the tittle say "coreldraw 7" and the message talk about CorelDRAW X7 (version 17.x)
The text handle is different on x6 and X7 than older versions, so it's natural to have some change on spacing and kerning.
i mean CorelDRAW X5 (version 15.x) but most of the files are even older and had been created with corelDRAW 14x
2 weeks ago I installed corel draw X7 and than came all the problems with the text placement. if i save the old files in version 17 (coreldraw x7) and than open the files again i have to correct all the text. i have to move all the texting to its original placement. i can not work this way...
thank you all for your support :)
It seems to me that if you open the file in X7, it first appears correctly formatted,
But then, when you save it from X7, as X7 and open it again in X7, that's when the problem appears.
Is that what is happening?
yes. you are correct!
I have written this up as a bug and forwarded it to Corel.
thank you very much! i hope they will fix the bug...
If you need to work on those files in the meantime, a method that seems to work is:
Doing this, I've managed to edit that file and save it a couple of times without problems so I think the PDF stage somehow breaks the setting that causes the problem.
thank you. i will check it :)
hi every body
i have solved the problem. i discovered that i had a problem with the text in the window 7. the corel 7 has nothing to do with this problem. after i have solved the problem with the window 7 everything is ok with corel 7. thank you for your support :)
Do you know what the windows problem was?
Problem with language settings of the operating system. I do not know exactly because i am not the one who solve the problem.
