Advantages: great for working in a print shop, exporting graphics using pantone colors, changing colors

Disadvantages: none for myself, but for beginners it takes time to learn

I have been using Corel Draw for about six years now. I started using it before I even started working as a graphic artist at home just playing around with it. I did not know much about it at the time, I basically knew how to draw circles, squares, import graphics and a few other basic steps. I could also create simple projects at home such as: stationary or greeting cards.

Throughout my years of experience of working in a print shop, I have learned to use Corel Draw in a more useful way. I have learned not only how to import the graphics from other graphic programs, but to ungroup vector images, recolor them using pantone colors and saving them as eps files. Once the eps images are saved using pantone colors, I then can import them into programs such as Quark Xpress and Pagemaker to create business cards, letterheads, newsletters, brochures, envelopes or any other graphic piece that I am assigned to create at the time. I can also export the images out as grayscale and then place them in the graphics programs that I just mentioned.

I have also learned how to make interesting wallpaper designs for my desktop using Corel PhotoPaint.
