crash when making vector picture out of monochrome bitmap

CorelDraw X5 home&student crashes everytime I try to make a vector out of a monochrome (black&wite) bitmap drawing. It happens with all resolutions and jpg or bmp.

I have installed the program on another pc to check, the same result. My pc is functioning perfect furthermore (Windows XP sp3; Core2duo 2.2 GHz; 3GB RAM). My only solution yet is first to convert to grayscale or duotone.

Anyone suggestions ?

  • Hello Anthonie,

    It wotks fine at my end. No crashes here.

    Can you try after a workspace reset?

    To reset the workspace to factory defaults, start Coreldraw while holding F8 key.

    You will be prompted to confirm if you want to reset. Click Yes. After doing this, you will loose any customization you have done to toolbars, keyboard shortcuts etc.

    Backup your workspace first if you have customized your workspace.
