can i upgrade to corelDRAW X3?
Hey,
I currently use CorelDRAW 8. I want to get CorelDRAW X3. Can you upgrade from Version 8? or would I have to buy The full version?
Thanks

Re: can i upgrade to corelDRAW X3? Willy,
I upgraded from 8 to X3 last year. No problems and I really like X3 better.
Good luck,
Ken

Re: can i upgrade to corelDRAW X3? If I go from Corel 12 to x4 is that a good move? Is that just an upgrade?

Re: can i upgrade to corelDRAW X3? yes, X4 is a great move, plenty of added goodies and Powertrace is much better. I am hoping in X5, they really beef it up.
Here is a great idea...why don't Corel and Adobe go out and buy macros and actions from their writers/creators and put them in as part of the program? That would be nice.

Re: can i upgrade to corelDRAW X3? I have both X3 and X4 and I find X4 actually runs faster and as Brad says the Powertrace is better. Quite often my X3 would crash and corrupt the file I was working on and guess what? Hours of work down the drain and uninstalling and re-installing X3 everytime is a pain in the @$$.

Re: can i upgrade to corelDRAW X3? use trace to convert a bitmat to a vector image. works best on simple bitmaps. don't expect even remotely good vectors on bitmaps with transitions and a high number of colours.

Re: can i upgrade to corelDRAW X3? personally I rarely use trace. 99% of the time if I do its to render a quick vector of a simple line art I drew by hand. Everything else is drawn in Corel using the tools
