I AM A coreldraw user. i having been using corel draw for many years. i have used coreldraw 11, 12,14, 16, 17. the quality for "prepare for service beurau" is best in corel 14 (1500 dpi) but i didnt been able to get that much quality from coreldraw x7.
i work mostly for fountains, drop shadow, high quality bitmaps.
i only want to know the best possible procedure for collecting for output in coreldraw x6 & x7.
I'm not sure what you mean. For example:

Never, on any version, Collect for output create bitmaps with so high and useless resolution. "Collect for output" will allows you to create a copy of the CDR and/or a PDF, if the content is vectorial the "Collect for output" will be vectorial, and if you use bitmaps the resolution don't change.

If you use fountain fills, there's no problem with uuality or resolution, since all are vector files. For Drop Shadows there's no resolution if you don't break apart the effect, and the quality is the resolution of the document (by default, 300 dpi)
Any printer can output a 1500 dpi bitmap, for film or CTP the max quality is around 300 / 400 dpi for 150 to 100 pi (lines per inch). More than this is only for create bigger files, but that doesn't increase quality, since there's not any device that can reproduce it.
i mean that when i make a pdf in corel x4 the images in cdr given a perfect quality and its smooth (there is no hazzy in the picture) but when i am creating in corel x7 then its not perfect. rather the image becomes blur and hazzy. (the image is of high quality, not low quality) and i dont bother about the size.
Collect for output does not create a PDF. You need file > publish to PDF for that.
X7 PDF can do everything that X4 PDF did. Start by checking which PDF preset you used in X4 and if you still do not get the same results using that, compare the detailed settings.
sry but collect for output creates a duplicate .cdr file and a pdf file.
in coreldraw x4 there is not much setting to configure but in x7 the settings are highly advanced
According to the help file ...
The PDF file settings for the print service provider and the Prepress settings are identical. For information about the PDF Prepress style settings, see Exporting documents as PDF files.
So my previous suggestion stands -- try using Publish to PDF using the prepress preset (or a PDF-X preset if the recipient has requested it) and see if it meets your requirement.
