Hi All
I made the BigJump from 9 to X4 some months ago , time to say something about, feelings are really mixted
from one side i loved the new interface, how X4 handles PDF was the great thing for me , awesome feature was for me the export for office option (png power :) ) smart guides helped some, but i really miss ver 9 speed
even for dummy files X4 is a big turtle, i have the feeling of "jumping" graphics (like "lag" in games) tested illustrator CS5 in same machine was EXTREMELY SPEEDER ,damn if i didnt have the Unicode fonts issue i d thrown that turtle away... its hard to say that for the software that i do my job from 1991 but ver 9 was the GOLD version -Damn Corel MAKE A FAST and STABLE programm with only a few features
Really dissapointed blame myself that i didnt started with Mac /illustrator platform...

Yes. I agree it is a bad thing about the newer version.
I could install verion 12 right now and throw twice as many items on the screen. Zooming in and out, and program operation in general would be twice as fast. Same thing with version 9 on an old Windows 98 machine. Why are newer versions slower?
I upgraded to X4 for my shop computer for the macro power. When I had version 12 however I could work faster and with more files.

Hello pap; I use X4 and it is very fast, it all go back to what and how your computer is! CorelDraw likes a lot of ram and a fast CPU. If it has what it wants it's fast, I used ver. 11 before and it was not to bad, but X4 runs a lot faster. I have found out over the years that the screen refresh is the bigest hold up, A 1gb video card helps a lot, The type doesn't seem to mater. ( fast ram ddr3 or 5 would be faster )
My thought George
IS POSSIBLE CS5 Adobe Poem (from a Designer s view) to go REALLY fast and X4 needs fast DDR3 Rams , sauce omellettes, and chili to work??
something really wrong happens / and this crappy antialize outline ruins everything u try to do (from Artistic view)
damn 4GB ram / E5200 / 4750 what else need this crap to work / Photoshop runs in turbo mode w that staff
guys sorry if i am offensive but i feel really dissapointed...
