New! Search capability in Corel

®

 CONNECT

™

: 

A new search toolbar lets you instantly extract 

images from a client’s website, making it quick and 

easy to leverage content assets from online sources. 

You simply type a web address in the Search box 

and Corel CONNECT immediately gathers all images 

defined with an HTML <img> tag from the web 

site. You can also type search terms or a folder path 

to have Corel CONNECT scour your computer, 

network, or other online resources for content.

 X6: 

Technical illustrators 

and technical graphics users often base a new 

illustration on an existing one. Legacy designs can 

include scanned bitmaps of circuit design, 

blueprints, schematics, hand-drawn sketches, as 

well as drawings created with previous versions of 

Corel DESIGNER.

With Corel PowerTRACE X6, you can quickly and 

accurately convert bitmaps into editable and 

scalable vector images. In addition, PowerTRACE 

generates a color palette, which lets you instantly 

edit, merge, or delete specific colors used in the 

original bitmap.

Technical illustrators require specialized tools 

designed for very specific tasks. For instance, they 

need the ability to work quickly and intuitively 

when adding or fine-tuning dimension lines and 

text, two-point lines, detailed annotations, callouts, 

and measurements. The ability to call attention to 

an element in an illustration by providing a 

magnified view is also critical.

CorelDRAW Technical Suite X6 provides drawing 

and diagramming tools that help users envision 

with precision.

New! Measurements in projected space: 

Technical illustrations are often used as build plans, 

in which cases it is imperative to display precise 

measurement values. Isometric projections are a 

common visualization style for technical 

illustrations, so the dimensioning must be readable 

as well as clearly assigned to an object or portion of 

a drawing. With Corel DESIGNER X6, you can use 

Dimension tools to quickly and accurately measure 

objects and distances in projected space.
