If you are concerned about the Xara installer downloading it for you, you can grab a copy directly from Microsoft

As GDI is a Microsoft Windows interface for representing graphical objects and transmitting them to output devices such as monitors and printers, I very much doubt you will be able to try XaraXtreme without it.

*GDI+ is an improved 2D graphics environment, adding advanced features such as anti-aliased 2D graphics, floating point coordinates, gradient shading, more complex path management, intrinsic support for modern graphics-file formats like JPEG and PNG
