just wondering .... when will coreldraw be available on linux?
today, corel is the only application which holds me back from switching
FosterCoburn said:Corel has announced no plans now or in the future to port to Linux. Obviously that could change tomorrow, but as of today there are no plans.
there's a very big community of graphic designers from all over the world that work with corel X4 and would like to get it to work on linux.
we beg you to find a solution - maybe work with wine or crossover.
info-data said:I think Corel company intentionally/deliberately creates new versions NOTindependent. new versions dependent of MS netframework. I DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHY??????????????
Yes, you're right. CorelDRAW is fully integrated to Windows, using part of the interface, and also the .NET Framework and Microsoft VBA and VisualStudio macros. There's no chances of CorelDRAW for Linux in the future,
info-data said:This is real catastrophe for part of Corel business. at last people will use inkscape. by the way i was test it Inkscape - real alternative (suitable) /portable, independent, cross-platform/
If you are committed to running Linux, then you might also consider Scribus if you do page layout and/or desktop publishing work.
Hi, Eskimo! For the test of my forces, i deleted corel photoshop indesign & so on... from my computer (win XP sp2). & intall Scribus Gimp Krita Inkscape. during the my work - unusually!!! very unusually!!! BUT!! I made work in limited time. &.... No problems it typography!!!!! That was printed - result - perfect. (Ariel - [:P] ) & now i thinking to say GOODBYE to paid not universal software (corel photoshop indesign...)
