Question Artwork Question

I'm creating a logo in Corel Draw. Ithen draw a line with an 8 pt. size.
When I shrink the logo to put on a heart print, the line I drew still stays at 8 pt. I have to manually reduce it to a 4 pt. maybe even a 2 pt.
Any suggestions as to why this happens? Is this normal?

thank,
Joe

Yes, I group it all then shrink, but the same thing happens.

I'm not sure if it's relevant, but in Illustrator you have to set "scale strokes and effects" in your preferences. It seems like Corel should have something similar.

I just did some more research and I found the answer to my question. It seems that on lines in Corel Draw, there is a little box that can be checked off that says "Scale with Image". That should do it.
Thanks

Glad you found the answer. Another useful option in the same dialog box is "Behind Fill", by default the stroke/outline applies from the object to the inside and outside. As long as the inside has a fill, when this option is checked, it will only apply the outline to the outside of the object.
