X4 on DVD When you purchase X4 it will be delivered to you in DVD
format. For those of you with only a CD on your computer, you will not
be able to install X4. But don’t worry. You can buy an external USB DVD
player at almost any electronics store for $ 50 to $ 100. Simply plug it
in and you’re ready to install X4 (or watch your favorite movie!)
Mirror paragraph text Finally, you can now
mirror paragraph text in Corel Draw X4! This may not seem like a big
deal, but if you’ve ever tried to set up a lot of text for an odd shaped
acrylic award, you’ve been frustrated when you get it all set up and it
turns to gibberish when you’ve mirrored it in earlier versions of
Corel. With just a click of your mouse, mirroring paragraph text now
works just like you have wanted it to for years!
Straighten Image Is that bitmap image
you’re trying to use slightly askew or even way off? Not to worry – this
new feature will help you get it all straightened out. well, your
bitmap images anyway. This new feature is one we’ve been wishing for
years and it’s so easy to use that you’re going to throw images into the
scanner any old way so you can show everyone how easily you can now
straighten them. It’s that cool!
Font Identification “I love that font on
the image I scanned, but what’s it called and where can I find it?” If
you’ve ever had to scan an image and replicate the font this new feature
is a lifesaver! Thanks to integration with WhatTheFont from
MyFonts.com, you can easily determine what font is being used on any
bitmap. This feature is as easy to use and just as cool as the
Straighten Image feature!
Specialized Fonts Corel has added 10
engraving fonts in X4. These fonts are on the X4 DVD and can be found by
following this path: DVD Drive | Extras Content Fonts True Type
Engraver. In some Corel literature these fonts are referred to as single
line fonts, but they are technically not. They were designed to look
like single line fonts, but they do have fills and outlines. They do
however, emulate traditional engraving fonts and many people will find
them quite useful.
