New! 
Interactive frames: 
CorelDRAW X6 
provides interactive frames that help you 
efficiently generate mock-ups of design ideas. The 
new empty PowerClip and text frame 
functionality lets you populate your designs with 
placeholder PowerClip and text frames, which 
makes it easier to preview a layout before 
finalizing its individual content components. 
With CorelDRAW X6, you can also now drag 
content over a PowerClip frame, and then choose 
either to add the content to the frame or to 
replace any existing frame content. PowerClip 
frames also now give you the option of centering 
content within the frame or scaling content to fit 
proportionally within the frame. In addition, you 
can now easily create text frames from any closed 
curve object, and you can then edit the frame to 
take on any shape imaginable. 
The empty PowerClip feature helps you visualize a 
layout before adding content.
New! 
Complex script support: 
With 
CorelDRAW X6, the enhanced complex script 
support built into the overhauled text engine 
ensures proper typesetting for glyphs used by 
Asian and Middle Eastern languages.
Support for complex scripts ensures that multilingual 
glyphs display correctly in your documents.
New! 
Page numbering: 
With CorelDRAW X6, 
the new Insert Page Number command helps you 
instantly add page numbers on all pages of a 
document, starting on a specific page, or starting 
at a particular number. This flexibility is ideal for 
working with multiple CorelDRAW files that will 
eventually become a single publication.
You can choose from alphabetic, numeric, or roman 
formats, and you can display page numbers in lower 
or upper case lettering. You can also insert a page 
number inside existing artistic or paragraph text.
