Hey all,
So, I've used CorelDraw 2018 for a year without issue. It works for me and it's easy to use. Well, all of a sudden I can't open most of my saved .dxf files. I get an "Unrecoverable Error" and it won't allow me to open my files that I saved. I've contacted support and they said that the 2018 version is too old to open newer .dxf files. I didn't have this issue a week ago and now all of a sudden I'm not able to open my own files. They pretty much told me that I'm SOL and to buy the newest version. What's the point of spending $500 for this to possibly happen again? I own this version so I should be able to use it to its fullest capability. Has anyone else had this issue? Thanks.
I would suggest that you upload a sample dxf file for others to try. Please zip it up. If too large for here, upload it to dropbox or the like and provide a download link.
Thanks for the reply. I edited my post to reflect that it isn't only recent files it can't open. It's just about all of my .dxf files. Here's a dropbox link: www.dropbox.com/.../Leaf trivet.dxf
If the screen shot below taken in CD 2018 is correct, there would seem to be something wrong as to your installation.
Maybe running a Repair from Windows' Add/Remove panel may work?
I repaired it like you said but to no avail. I don't know why it would open as it should on your end but not mine. Thanks for the suggestion though.
tested opening / importing on version 11, X4, X5, 2019 and it worked well
Ifrepair doesn't hellp then i would try to reset Corel Draw workpace (hold F8 when starting CD, be aware that you will loose your workspace customization
I did the workspace reset a few days ago and it didn't work, unfortunately. I appreciate your help though.
