Hello all,
The following steps crashes Corel X4 when opening a saved document:
1) Define color space as seen in the image below.
2) Import your images into layout. (Usually they are sRGB so they are being converted to working space.)
3) So far so good. Now save your work (cdr) and close it.
4) Now when you try to open the saved cdr file, it will attempt to load and Corel will crash (disappear) without giving an error.
Later I figured what's going on. The problem was activating Import/Export settings under color Management and when I disable it, I can open the saved work succesfully. But as long as I turn it on before opening the project, crash is absolutely unavoidable.
This bug report is valid for X4 with or without SP1, SP2 etc.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Maybe you can first try to replace the color profile with a working one to eliminate any possibility of a faulty color profile.
Actually, the settings are working properly. I mean I can drag an RGB image on the page and it converts this sRGB bitmap into Adobe1998 working space without problems. The crash only happens when I try to open any saved project. So in order to avoid this, I unlink Import profiling first and open the file, then I link it again.
Hi
My PP working fine with the same settings that I set a couple of days back, as suggested by you. Still its working fine without any problems. I think, as Micheal suggests, you should try reinstalling the CM files. I know, you have problem only in importing or opening saved files. Trying this may will not harm. May be the issue will sort out.

Do you mean you could also open the last file I've sent? (please see the latest link above)
I also had a crash with the file. I opened it with PP. I could see only a black rectangle. Not sure did the file originally had the same in it.
However, I have tried exporting and importing back an image, saving and re-opening the DRAW files without any problems yet. It seems that this file has some issues like corrupted information or so. Have you tried replicating the issue with scratch ?
