  • RE: Typing Text does not show correctly in X8

    Mr. Claude,

    Where can we report this major problem?

    I posted details in Error Kerning Right-to-Left Fonts on how kerning Arabic fonts is destroying the fundamental letters joining and spacing, but I received no answers. I'm trying CorelDRAW X8 after…

  • Error Kerning Right-to-Left Fonts

    CorelDRAW X8 (and Corel Font Manager) misinterpret the kerning in right-to-left fonts. In a pair of kerned glyphs, instead of shifting the second glyph closer to the first glyph (to the right in right-to-left languages) CorelDRAW shifts the first glyphs…

  • RE: Typing Text does not show correctly in X8

    You are typing right-to-left script with a kerned font. CorelDRAW X8 (and Corel Font Manager) misinterprets the kerning in such fonts and results in gaps between pairs of letters that include letters that need kerning e.g. "ر", "و", "ع", and "ك". Try using…

  • CorelDraw X6 Copy Properties?

    Just upgraded to CorelDraw X6 from X4 and one of the tools I used frequently is missing.  I was able to select an object and hit CTRL+SHIFT+A to bring up the COPY PROPERTIES box where I could copy the Text Properties, Colors, etc from an existing object…

  • CorelDraw X6 cursor placement for kerning

    First of all, X6 is like a dream come true -- advanced opentype, real text styles, color styles -- I love it all. (Thanks for including the lovely DIN type family, too.) But, as a type nut, I'm accustomed to placing my cursor between two letters and using…

  • Mesh Fill on Text?

    I have discovered the Mesh Fill tool. I am having a lot fun playing around with it but can't seem to apply it to text.
    I have converted the text to curves but it just acts as a fill.  Is there a way to use the Mesh Fill on Text?
