I was tasked last night to recover some archived files and came across the problem of using proprietary file formats.
I have 44 Corel Draw files that I need to convert to something that I can either view or actually edit such as OOo Draw.
Has anyone come across a solution other than the obvious, find a Windows computer, find a copy of Corel Draw and install Corel Draw?
I searched for over 2 hours and tried everything that I could.
I have also posted a message to the ImageMagick list as well.
Thank you. -- Robin Laing
Hi Robin;
If you find anything on this please let the list know (or at least me ;-) ). I've looked for years for a linux solution to CDR files, and have never found anything. I have several hundred CDR files that I'd like to convert, and the only solution I've come up with is a file by file conversion to some other format (WMF or CGM) from within a Win/CorelDRAW installation.
-P
I knew I'd seen it demo'd at a linux convention I went to..here's the wayback machine link...http://web.archive.org/web/20000815060742/linux.corel.com/
