    Default Re: "not a coreldraw file" ...

    PlayStation_Network (1).zip

    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

    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.

    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
