By the time I finish one of my books, I’m a little mad. No, not angry, the crazy kind of mad. As I was searching for today’s font, it was only appropriate that I choose a mad font. Mad Marker is the font and it looks like it was created with a really thick...
Last week I told you about a quick, but hidden, way to create a bounding box in CorelDRAW. Sometimes it is hard for me to know what little tips users already know and what they don’t know. That one must have hit the spot for many users as I got a lot of e-mails...
I remember the last time I was in Miami and I made sure to spend some extra time driving around looking at the Art Deco architecture. Today’s font, Tara Bulbous, would fit in quite well in those neighborhoods. Each of the characters features a stark contrast...
Typically when April 15 rolls around in the United States, some of us feel like we are tied up in rope as our taxes are due. Due to an obscure local Washington DC holiday, we can delay our taxes until after the weekend. Given the rope them, I thought I would talk...

Later today, I’ll start another CorelDRAW Unleashed Training Boot Camp. The users joining me will come away with increased knowledge of CorelDRAW and there is no doubt their productivity and profits will soar. On the other hand are users who simply think things...
Many users are confused about PostScript (PS) printers and why they can be useful for a designer. There are features of CorelDRAW that will only output on PostScript printers. The one most often desired by users is the ability to control the halftone screen when...
One of my favorite fonts is Caslon Antique. It takes the popular Caslon font and distresses the edges to make it look old and worn out. You may remember it as the font used for the Les Miserables logo. Both the normal and the italic weight are included in...
A few weeks ago I wrote a post about Clip Art and Excess Nodes. In the post, I talked about some of the problems you may face when artwork has too many nodes. A user sent me a file that showed me yet another node-related problem that I wanted to share.In this case,...
Corel recently released the CorelDRAW.com app for the iPhone. The app makes it easier for iPhone users to interact with the CorelDRAW.com Web site. I don’t have an iPhone and I typically interact with the site via a mailreader so it isn’t something of...
