	Keep in mind also that the full Retail version that you can buy and download from the Corel website does not include everything that the boxed version does.

Really? I bought mine from the corel website as a download. I'm missing good stuff?

Decal_Designs · May 26th, 2006

Yes, I think you are missing some good stuff.
Here is what is not included in the download version according to the Corel website.

"Download Version Information

Please note: Download versions do not include CD, printed manuals, clipart/photo images or fonts or lynda.com tutorials

More than 10,000 individually selected clipart and digital images
1,000 OpenType fonts, plus 35 Windows® Glyph List 4 (WGL4) fonts
NEW! 100 creative templates included free of charge
Bitstream Font Navigator "

There are actually 4 Cd's in the retail box.

Disk 1 has all the program files, including Rawshooter which is a program for working with the RAW digital camera file type.

Disk 2 has the clip art as well as frames, patterns, spraylists and tiles.

Disk 3 has all the fonts, high res photos and photo objects.

Disk 4 has the Corel Draw Design Collection and the lynda.com training videos.

Plus there is the 430 page User Guide, the 364 page color clip art, font and photo object index manual, and the 78 page color hand book called Insights from the Experts, which has several step by step how-to's for creating different projects.

very true.

Rodney · May 26th, 2006

Dangit...I could sure use that rawshooter program, since my digicam shoots raw files. The lynda.com training tutorials would have been nice too!

I guess that's what I get for wanting the instant gratification of the download instead of waiting for the CDs to ship.

I know some software manufacturers will still send you what you would have gotten if you had it shipped, or bought the boxed version from a local retailer.

You may want to check and see if you can still get those things, Rodney.

Decal_Designs · May 26th, 2006

Yeah, I would try to call customer support, and see if they could somehow send that stuff to you. I think there was a price difference though, but maybe something could be worked out. Really, I was very happy to see all this stuff in the box when I opened it up. I'm sure you would like it too.

If not go to the X3 newsgroup and yell for tony. Rawshooter is awesome and you retain so much more color in RAW.

Rodney · June 1st, 2006

Who's Tony? Does he work for Corel?

Fluid · June 2nd, 2006

Yes He's up there and trolls the official X3 newsgroups. Sometimes hell point people in the right direction.

HI everyone,

I'm looking into purchasing the academic corel as well. My question is - from which website?

I have been to genesis-technologies.com and pagecomputers.com. There are many more out there. The prices seem to differ between $10-20.

Does anyone has direct experience buying academic software from any particular website? If so could you please tell me a little about it.

Thank you very much
Annushka

If you dont mind having to download the manuals, the OEM version of all software is as cheap as Student. The OEM comes with all clipart, fonts and tutorals that the full version does, just no hardcopy manual. Google it.

We purchased just the 4 disks of the full version with a valid CD key for just over $100. Found it on Ebay. We also found the full boxed version advertised for $145 but they don't send anything except the media (4 disks) and CD key.

There are no actual books available for this version that you can buy separately that I have found.

Annushka · October 9th, 2006

Thanks guys.

Binki do you remember by any chance who the seller was on eBay?

Thank you

binki · October 9th, 2006

check your pm for the ebay seller
