"not a coreldraw file" ...
I downloaded a vector
But it says "not a coreldraw file" ....
Anyone an idea how I can load it in?
I'm not even interested in a general solution I only need to load in this specific file. If anyone has a copy of Coreldraw and could save it in Xar format that would also be great!

Hi
that link requires signing in - as such I am inclined to think it spam
if you have a legitimate vector file that you cannot open in xtreme 5 please can you post it up here
thanks
Re: "not a coreldraw file" ...
yes... that would be spam if it were the not a website ranked #4500 in Alexa.......
In other words: links to sites like "google.com/whatever" or "youtube.com/bla" are uhm ... not really spam just a tip :) ......................... ??? (above ranking 100.000 they become shadier)
Ok... just google for the playstation network logo as (so the blue ball with the playstation icons on it) and I'm looking for the vector one.
This site was the only one containing a vector logo of it but it was in Coreldraw format.
So rephrase: does anyone have a .xar format logo of the playstation network logo? :)

not the site - your post
ok welcome [back] to the forum
what format is the file ?
.CDR?
if you post it up someone may be able to help you convert it
if the site allows you to download it as PDF that would probably work better

The uploader would not accept a .cdr file but it did want the zip file :)
This is the file that I downloaded from "the" site. It has extension .cdr and on the site I read that it really should be coreldraw format.
I look with the Hex editor in the file and the first part seems to say it is. In the header I also notice the e-mail and the website of the creator. But that website is probably long gone because the new website on that url look like an ad for an mba program. (and with the hex editor I see he had coreldraw installed in E:\Program Files\Corel\Graphics9\Dra ... )
While doing this I stumbled upon "inkscape" which pretends to also read .cdr files, but that is a big installer, however Im installing this now... maybe that does it
Re: "not a coreldraw file" ...
update: "inkscape" does actually read in the .cdr via import but I only get the grey "outlined filled shape" not the content of the shape. I tried to see if there were any layer in it but there is only one. Then again my knowledge of inkscape is all-i-did-with-it in the last 5 minutes so maybe there is an option to view more of it.

it doesn't work in inkscape....

Hi
converted the CDR to CMX/AI/PDF with coreldraw X5
CMX and PDF work in as much as the vector objects are there, but the colour and the fills and the highlights are not right
AI does not import at all
best I can do
