Does 2019 support the HEIC image format? This would include PhotoPaint and CorelDraw (import).
No. Not likely anytime soon either I'd bet.
You know Corel has given up when PhotoPaint doesn't support this format that Adobe PS does. Probably why I've not upgraded for two versions. :-(
Adobe PS doesn't, not on PC anyway.
I'm looking at this, so we're looking at a file format the is only available on a newer I Phone. Is that correct?
Yes, if a clients send images from the iPhone, you are pretty much up a creek if using CorelDraw 2018 or 2019. You would have to find a different conversion tool.
I found a free converter in a few seconds. I get it there's a need for it but quite frankly don't want to be in the iPhone image quality level of image editing. The current level of DSLR work is awful enough.
Yeppers. Definitely a work around. I'm just a bit disappointed that HEIC since around Sep 2017 and a Corel (PhotoPaint) doesn't support the format. I've just plain struggled at upgrading from X8 since v2018 and v2019 are not, IMHO, keeping up. I get it, they have probably devoted 90% of resources to their online App work. Soon a desktop version may not be available.
