There is a member of the CorelDRAW family that many users know very little about and today that family member has been updated. Corel DESIGNER Technical Suite X4 is available for immediate purchase as a download and a boxed version will be available soon.

Corel DESIGNER is built on all of the same engines as CorelDRAW so many parts of the product will be immediately familiar to CorelDRAW users. It includes Corel PHOTO-PAINT, Corel PowerTRACE and Corel CAPTURE just like the CorelDRAW Graphics Suite. While there are similarities, there are also powerful features in Corel DESIGNER that are not found in CorelDRAW.

If you are working with technical illustrations, then you’ll want to give Corel DESIGNER a long look. For example, support for importing 3D CAD files from all of the popular formats is included. You’ll also find support for CGM files from popular design programs. When designing your own drawings, there are improved tools for adding dimensions and arrowheads as well as projected drawing modes. There is also a large library of hatch fills that can be used to fill your graphics.

These are only a few of the features you’ll find in Corel DESIGNER. A free trial is available for download, so give it a try for yourself!
