Review: Hard to beat! - Corel's Graphics software are at the top of my list, hard to beat in my mind! As in earlier issues, this is the most complete and comprehensive guide to solving questions that may come up or Graphic problems that may arise.

It is filled with examples and step by step guides for most every feature of the program. I have used Corel Draw since the mid 90s and am a big fan. I can do all sorts of excellent techniques with the program and I only know about 10 percent of what x8 can do. Maybe even only 8 percent. If a user really wants to learn the program and is willing to spend the time it takes, this is the most complete source for your answers.
