Choosing a file type while exporting diagram from coreldraw to ms publisher

SB_686 over 8 years ago

Hi,

I have created a diagram in coreldraw, however I need to export the same to ms publisher. My questions:

1. What file type should I export the diagrams in? Should it be EMF? (as this doesn't seem to have a white background)

2. Secondly, while exporting it asks whether you want to keep it as default or vector etc? What would give me better output while printing?

Please let me know ... don't want to mess up during printing. Thanks.

You can't "export " as a MS Publisher file. What you want is to be able to use your cd design in MS Publisher. It all depends on what elements your design is comprised of. I'm not familiar with what file types are compatible with Publisher but you always want to keep as much vector as possible to get the best print. If your design is all vector and has no blended colors I'd export as eps. If you have raster images and vectors with blends you might try exporting as an ai or publish to pdf.
Just my 2 cents worth.

Thanks Myron for your reply... sorry but as you can see I am not good with the technicalities :( ... I simply need to export the diagram/image created from corel to microsoft publisher ... currently I have chosen to export it as an EMF and clicked on vector as well.... it allows me to import into publisher easily without a white patch or anything... my only concern is .. will this be ok if it goes into printing? or should I be concerned? any thoughts?

If what you're exporting as an emf is all vector to begin with then you'll have no problems with print quality.
