Corel has introduced CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X7, the latest version of its flagship graphics suite. With a redesigned and highly customisable user interface, the suite is tailored to each user’s workflow, offering new ways to increase productivity during every step of the design process.“During the creation of CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X7, we solicited customer input more than ever before,” says Gérard Métrailler, senior director, Product Management – Graphics, Corel.
“Each new feature is the result of direct customer feedback. Our goal is to ensure that CorelDRAW users can get the job done as fast as possible. So, we let them decide how they work with CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X7.”
This major release features powerful fill capabilities, high DPI, multi-monitor and touchscreen compatibility, and more ways to share content with the CorelDRAW community.
In addition, multi-core and native 64-bit support allows users to run multiple applications and process large files with ease. The program will help users get started quickly, complete projects efficiently and make the design process their own.
