Spot color channels: Corel PHOTO-PAINT X3 now lets users create 

and modify images that contain spot colors. This is particularly useful for two-
color images, multi-channel spot color images, and images for printing that 
require a gloss layer over areas of the image.

1 Start Corel PHOTO-PAINT X3, and open an image.

2 Click Image 

`

 Cutout Lab.

3 In the Cutout Lab dialog box, click the Highlighter  

tool.

4 In the preview window, draw a line along the edges of the image area 

that you want to cut out.

5 Click the Inside Fill 

 tool, and click inside the area you want to cut 

out.

6 Click Preview.

7 If necessary, use the Add Detail  

and 

Remove Detail 

 tools to 

refine your cutout object.

8 From the Cutout Results area, choose any of the following options:

• Cutout — creates a cutout object and discards the original
• Cutout and original — creates a cutout object and preserves the 
original
• Cutout as clip mask — creates a clip mask attached to original

9 When you are satisfied with the result, click OK.
