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.
Give it a try

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

 Cutout Lab.
In the Cutout Lab dialog box, click the Highlighter  
tool.
In the preview window, draw a line along the edges of the image area 
that you want to cut out.
Click the Inside Fill 
 tool, and click inside the area you want to cut 
out.
Click Preview.
If necessary, use the Add Detail  
and 
Remove Detail 
 tools to 
refine your cutout object.
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
