I'm in the midst of moving from Windows to Linux and from Corel to Gimp. Gimp is great, but there is one issue I need help with.

I have numerous files in CorelDRAW (.cdr) and Corel PhotoPaint (.cpt) formats that I need to work with. Since I find no Gimp support for Corel formats I've tried first converting the.cdr and.cpt files to Photoshop (.psd) format in Corel, and then opening the.psd files in Gimp. This works, but the result is a flat image with no objects. It's as if I had converted the original image to.jpg instead of.psd. Is there a way to get Corel files into Gimp and still have objects that can be manipulated?

If not, can anyone suggest another open source application or tool for Linux? This issue is the only reason I still have Windows on my computer and I'm anxious to become Linux only.

Being able to do everything that you need to do is an important step in converting to Linux. Thanks, but I get the same result as with.psd format: the image is flattened. All objects are merged with the background. I can open it in Gimp but there are no objects to edit. Any other ideas?

I'd prefer to avoid having to remake almost from scratch some 150 files that are now in Corel formats.

The problem must lie in the Corel Photopaint PSD exporter, since GIMP's PSD import plugin works with multilayered images fine. Unfortunately I have no idea how to solve your lock-in problem without considerable effort:/ On a related note - you can get rid of that Windows partition by using the linux port of Photopaint;).

That's the show stopper for me then. It's the text layers I need.

The non text layers don't need to be modified. In that case I'll just redo the images in Gimp as.xcf and chalk it up as a learning experience.

Photoshop.psd files are proprietary as.cdr and.cpt so you'll eventually have trouble with them. Its always advisable to save important files in non-proprietary file formats. My entire move to Linux is so I can escape proprietary file formats and closed source apps while I still can. A couple more years and Microsoft, Corel, et al would have had me completely Borged. Thanks everyone for your advice. Jon Winters wrote: Be prepared to lose your text layers.

Why not export figures from GIMP and insert them into your project in Inkscape? Then you can keep your vector graphics in Inkscape. On Tue, Dec 1, 2015 at 2:22 PM Alex Vergara Gil wrote: Hello!

Is there a way of importing ai files into gimp? I know i canuse them in inkscape but i need to insert some figures in my project, i need them to be very resolutive but converting them to png is not what i expect, results are a disaster. Regards Alex gimp-user-list mailing list List address: List membership: List archives. Dear Liam Thats exactly my problem, fonts are not converted properly, even when the same font is installed in my system, it just puts the rendered text without transparency overlapping the enclosure, also enclosures are rendered wrongly (smaller than should be).

It seems a conversion problem, but I know going from vector to bitmap is not straightforward. Thats the main reason why i wanted GIMP to handle vector layers, with a final preview and some control from users side about the final conversion. Regards Alex 2015-12-03 0:53 GMT-05:00, Liam R.

I've used inkscape on the commandline (in Linux) to convert ai files to png in the past, and it's worked fairly well as long as I have the right fonts installed. How were you converting the files to PNG?

What problems did you have? Can you share a sample file? (ignore if you've already solved it all!) Liam - Liam R.
