Batch Convert CDRs to PNGs

I have a folder of 200+ CDR files and i want to convert them all to PNGs..

 

I understand to create the action i go to; Windows - Docker - Rocorder and press record and start recording my action (similar to Photoshop) but i don't understand how to apply the action to a folder of files.. So far i have only achieved converting one CDR at a time..

 

Any help please?

    Hi.

    I have never used it for PNG files but it should work fine. See the built in file converter macro.

    • Thanks for the quick reply John.

       

      I can't seem to find the file converter though

      When i click Run Macro the macro that comes up is SlideShow.Start And in any of the options there's no sign of the file converter or the macro 'Converter.Start' Does it come with X5 or an additional download?

        Hi.

        Yes. It comes with Draw.

        Open your macro manager docker for x5. Alt + Shift + F11 or go to Tools > Macros > Macro Manager.

        See if you can find it there.

         

        If not take a look in the GMS folder and see if the .gms file for it is even there.

        It's either C:\Program Files (x86)\Corel\CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X5\Draw\GMS

        or C:\Users\<your username>\AppData\Roaming\Corel\CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X5\Draw\GMS

        • Ah yes, i was looking in PhotoPaint.

           

          And it worked perfectly! Thankyou very much for the help John.
