CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X3 CorelDRAW compatability with Adobe Indesign

CorelDRAW compatability with Adobe Indesign

I work for a large company with several business units. All other units use Indesign and ask me to send them templates and original artwork from which they can create their own marketing communications.

My question is - is there a way to make CorelDRAW files compatible with Indesign?

Andrew,

It depends on how you define "making compatible". I use CorelDRAW files in InDesign all the time. I either export to EPS files or PDF files depending on my needs. If you need the elements to be "editable" in InDesign, things are much more challenging and you probably won't be able to accomplish this to your satisfaction.

Thanks for your answers guys,

This is a tricky situation as I am not an Indesign user myself, and the person who I am making the templates for is new to Indesign.

I have tried saving a CorelDRAW file as an EPS, but fountain fills don't work well this way. And I was told that by the new Indesign user that she could not open PDF files with Indesign.

I might end up getting an old copy of Indesign to recreate the files.
