By Inspector Gadget

For years I've been using the embarrassingly out-of-date and
low-wattage Paint Shop Pro 7 graphic program from JASC Software which
came out in 2001. Corel have owned JASC since 2004, so you could call X5
an evolution. The main thing that's been putting me off learning the
tools of newer, better programs is that it takes a long time and a LOT
of patience to develop the skill needed to utilize the software
correctly. CorelDRAW X5 is no exception, but what a program it is if you
do have the patience.


I do a lot of photo-manipulation for fun, and I have been frequently
disappointed at how little functionality the old Paint Shop programs
offered. Upon examining the features in X5 all I can say is WOW! THIS is
a slick, innovative and thoroughly modern software package that I
wouldn't hesitate to recommend to professionals or beginners. But if you
are a beginner I must stress again that a lot of practice and trial and
error is necessary to fully explore and understand all of the features.
You want loads of fonts? You got 'em. Need to play with clip-art? It
offers thousands of images. Need to access multiple file types? X5 can
manage it.
