Getting Reliable Output

Not a day goes by that I don't see a user having problems getting their CorelDRAW file to output properly. Some of these users are so upset that they threaten to give up on CorelDRAW and move to Adobe Illustrator. While their frustration is understandable, the problem won't go away by switching to alternative software.

The key is to properly prepare your files for output! Some effects are always going to cause problems so they must be simplified. Fonts can sometimes get lost in the transfer resulting in bad substitution. Of course there can also be color shifts.

Jeff Harrison covered the steps for getting reliable output in a recent blog post. This will take a little bit more of your time up front. But how much time do you waste if the file causes problems? How much money is wasted on materials if the file doesn't output properly? Getting it right the first time will save you time and money and Jeff has it all covered for you.

iv;e been using draw since version 3.
I have output a thousand files to every device yuo can think of from numerous computers, never had a single problem.
always been amazed at the absolutley perfect wysiwyg color no matter the device.never had to simplify anything. but this certanly has never happened with Illustrator or quark. perhaps those folks with problems ate using mac's.
