I write this message for all corel users. In my company i use corel and i use creative suite cs5 for one year and creative CC for one month. Adobe have a grate products but i think there are a lot of programs and one persone can't use all. I find my corel x4 more quickley than illustrator/indesign cc 64 bit. I spend one day for paginate eight pages with illustrator and three hours with Corel. I studies many hours indesign and illustrator but i think almost people have requirement that adobe promotes, it's only a business move. I hope Corel continue to developer this software with this policy and best each distribution. A good graphic using adobe but does not have the ideas in head will never make big plans!!

I use CDR from 2008 and in my opinion as i saw, Corel not invest in cdr developing much. From version x4 i saw some changes ,but not big changes. Only the character formating and the color management are changed, in rest just modified. Export and pdf problems appears in x6 like in x4, no free video tutorials to understand color management in x5, x6 ,CorelDraw masters not handle professional the serious problems like eps exporting or pdf publishing, or the bugs ,they reject all or handle indifferent ,they do not like the criticism :) etc... In graphic design industry (professional print companys) as i saw Adobe products are more preferably.

I export EPS and PDF files daily and haven't had a problem in years.
As for bugs, I find them to be very responsive.
Both are just tools. I happen to like Corel's suite of tools better for the price. Although, if both were the same price I'd still stick with Draw over Illustrator.
Also, I wouldn't want a video tutorial on color management, I prefer written documentation on things like that.

Please visit this link: http://community.coreldraw.com/forums/t/40135.aspx?PageIndex=1 and read all my comments , there i attached my cdr file on my comments ,please download and than export in eps and pdf and than upload here your results. Thanks
I have a lot of examples when pdf not works corectly. As i wrote in other topics about my problem : my clients(from USA, CANADA, AUSTRALIA, FRANCE,BRAZIL) wants eps ,pdf or ai files (cdr excluded, because they don't use cdr) and i don't have a license for Adobe products and i don't use ilegal softwares, i use only CDR for graphic design. With CDR i cannot export eps or publish pdf perfectly. I demonstrated a few exemple(with photos) in coreldraw.com forum when eps/pdf/Ai exporting/publishing/saving not works perfectly from CDR.

I do pdf output to printers daily without issue. I would like to see one of your cdr files that give you an issue. If you cannot upload one here can you email me one at operationsatpamspress.com and I will try it and see what I can find.

I sent to you one pdf, eps exemple with problems, also i sent the original cdr file via email. I wait your mail with pdf ,eps exported/published files. Last time when I sent to you files with problems you don't responded, please now respond no matter what the result will be. This problems are serious problems, damaged pdf files cannot print.
PDF is created with presetting parameters for PDF/x3 – i.e. create pdf ver. 1.3. PDF ver 1.3 doesn’t support transparency.
When creating PDF choose PDF presets – PDF/x3 and then compatibility with AA 5 or higher (transparency is supported from PDF ver. 1.4)
