Cdr Poster Making Tutorial If the whole poster is a vector diagram, you can reduce it first and then enlarge it. If there is a bitmap in the poster, it is recommended to make it according to the original size.

Really not line, also can be like this:

1) If inkjet is directly output in CDR, reduce the pixels of bitmap in PSD and put it in CDR for effect. When the effect is finished, replace the original small picture with the big picture. (The vector diagram part can be minimized)

2) If it is exported to JPG inkjet printing (the export is generally CMYK four colors), it is necessary to reduce the original image by 80%, not too small to be afraid of blurring. When exporting, put 300DPI in the pixel input. The differences between the exported images are very small. It should be noted that when drawing for others, you must tell the size, because the exported bitmap may become larger! ! (If you are worried about blurring, you can import the exported graphics into CDR and adjust it to 100%. There is an enlargement of 1: 1 in the CDR, and it can be seen that the printing effect mode is not blurred. Or afraid of blurring, just paint that part. )

It doesn't matter if it's a little fuzzy, because such a big poster will usually be seen from three meters away, and no one will gather in front to see it.

Detailed steps of how to use cdr to typeset newspapers about object selection

Coreldraw has only one tool to choose from, which seems simple, but has a lot of knowledge. Please see:

1.？ Press the spacebar to quickly switch to the pick tool.

2.？ You can select multiple objects in succession by holding down the shift key and clicking the objects to be selected one by one.

3.？ Select a single object hidden behind a series of objects, and then press and hold? ALT？ , and then click the previous object with the pick tool. Until the desired object is selected.

4.？ Circle a few objects. ：

Drag the mouse diagonally with the pick tool until all the objects are surrounded by the marquee.

5.？ Circle the objects that are not completely surrounded by the check box:

Click the pick tool. Take it. ALT？ Key, drag the circular box diagonally until the object to be selected is completely surrounded.

6.？ Select multiple objects hidden behind a series of objects:

Click the first object in a series of objects to be included in the selected object with the Pick tool.

Take it. ALT？ +? Shift? Key, and then click the next object to add it to the selected object.

7.？ Deselect the selected object: press the Esc key or click in an empty space in the workspace.

8.？ When holding down the shift key to select multiple items, if you accidentally make a mistake, you can hold down the shift key and click the wrong object again to cancel.

9.？ Pressing the TAB key repeatedly will cycle through the selection of objects.

10.？ Press SHIFT+TAB to select objects in drawing order.

1 1.？ Hold down when clicking? CTRL？ Key to select a single object in the group. Hold down when clicking? ALT？ Key to select a single object from a series of objects.

Hold down when clicking? ALT？ +? CTRL？ Key to select a single object from the object group.

12.？ Select all objects:

Do one of the following: Click Edit, Select All, and Object. Or double-click the pick tool.

13.？ Select all text:

Click Edit, Select All, and then select the text.

14.？ Select a hidden locked object:

Use the Pick tool to select objects. Click? ALT？ Key to select a locked object hidden under other objects. Locked objects will have a lock-like selection handle.

15.？ Select multiple locked objects? Use the Pick tool to select locked objects. Click? Shift? Key to select other objects. You cannot circle an unlocked object and a locked object at the same time.

Skills of drawing basic graphics:

1.？ Draw a square and a circle:

Select the rectangle/ellipse tool, hold down the ctrl key and drag the left key to draw. After drawing, pay attention to release ctrl first, and then release the left button.

2.？ Draw a square circle from the starting point:

Select the rectangle/ellipse tool, hold down the ctrl and shift keys at the same time, and drag the left key to draw. After drawing, pay attention to release ctrl first. And shift, and then release the left button.

3.？ Drawing a regular polygon is similar to drawing a rectangular circle, but you must first right-click the Polygon tool and select Properties to set the number of sides and shape of the polygon.

4.？ Double-click the rectangle tool to create a rectangle with the same size as the workspace, which can be used as a graphic background later.

5. Draw the basic shape from the center

Click the drawing tool you want to use. Take it. Shift? Key, and place the cursor in the center of the shape you want to draw, and then drag the mouse diagonally to draw the shape. Release the mouse button to finish drawing the shape, and then release it? Shift? key

6. Draw a shape with equal sides from the center.

Click the drawing tool you want to use. Take it. Shift? +? CTRL？ key Center the cursor on the shape you want to draw. Drag the mouse diagonally to draw a shape. Release the mouse button to finish drawing the shape, and then release? Shift? +? CTRL？ key

Editing skills

1.？ Rotate: double-click the object, hold down ctrl, drag the upper handle of the object, and rotate in increments of 15 degrees.

2.？ Move: Hold down ctrl while moving, and you can restrict the movement in the horizontal and vertical directions (similar to orthogonality in Autocad).

3.？ Move the object step by step: The arrow keys on the keyboard allow you to fine-tune the object in any direction. By default, objects are created by? 0. 1? Incremental motion of inches. You can modify the increment by setting an edit page in the property bar or the Options dialog box.

4.？ Zoom: Click Select, hold down shift and drag the control handle to scale the size of the object proportionally, and hold down ctrl and drag the control handle to scale in increments of 100%. What if I hold down alt? Just try it. 5.？ Hold it while dragging? CTRL？ Can you press the button? 15? Rotate objects in degrees increments. What should I do if I accidentally misuse it after drawing it? Press Ctrl+Z to undo (how many steps can be undone at most, which can be set in the tool [$#6 1664] option). Next time, it is a wrong operation. Simple lock! Select and arrange [$#6 1664] from the menu to lock the object. Well, the control handle around the object has become a small lock and cannot be moved, copied or deleted. What should I do if I unlock them? How about unlocking more than one at a time? Arrange [$#6 1664] to unlock (unlock all), OK!

Note: Locking and unlocking cannot be used for coordinating objects, text that adapts to paths, objects with shadow effects, and so on.

6.？ Notice that there is a Page tab below the workspace and above the status bar. Right click will pop up a right-click menu. You can:

Rename the page, insert pages before and after this page, switch the page orientation (landscape), and change the page size.

7.？ Similarly, right-click the ruler to pop up the right-click menu, which can: set ruler, set auxiliary line and set grid.

8.？ Set the origin of ruler: drag the intersection of horizontal ruler and vertical ruler to a certain position, which is the new origin of ruler. Look at this ruler, it has changed.

9.？ Move the mouse to the horizontal or vertical ruler, press and drag, and a guide line will be pulled out and displayed as the current object. You can also pull out multiple auxiliary lines. This is a simple and intuitive method for setting auxiliary lines. Keep the auxiliary line selected, click it again, and turn the two-way arrows at both ends of the auxiliary line, or you can rotate it! (Try pressing CTRL) If you want to set its coordinates and rotation angle accurately, double-click it and set it accurately in the pop-up options dialog box. If it doesn't fit, just press DEL to delete and start over.

10.？ Fill vector graphics or text: drag the color blocks on the color wheel directly onto the vector graphics (text), and pay attention to the cursor change. When it is displayed as a solid small color block, it is filled in the standard way, and when it is displayed as a hollow color block, it is set as its outline color. Another method: select the vector graphic or text to be set, left-click the color block for standard filling, and right-click the color block to set the outline color.

1 1.？ What should I do if I want to adjust the shading with other colors, but I don't want to fill it with gradient? Hold down (and hold down) the CTRL key, and click another color block with a different color on the color wheel. The color represented by this color block will be mixed with the original fill color at the ratio of 10%/ 1 click.

12. Specify fine tuning or fine tuning distance. Click Tools, Options. Click Workspace Edit in the category list. Do one of the following: Type the value you want to change in the spin box. Type values in the spin box and spin box. If necessary, you can select a unit of measurement from the unit list box. First, install fonts.

Step: Control Panel-Fonts-Files-Install New Fonts-Find the folder where the fonts are placed in the dialog window, then select the fonts to install and confirm. Many fonts downloaded from the internet can't be used, and some will be missing words. It is best to use square fonts.

Second, CORELDRAW has a puzzling problem:

First try to restore the default values of the CD. The method is to press F8, double-click the CORELDRAW icon on the desktop, prompt whether to restore to the initial value, and click OK (this method is often used to solve problems such as missing or shifting toolbars and property bars).

Three. Version utilization and compatibility:

CORELDRAW withdrew from the China market after 8.0, so there is no Chinese version of 9- 10, which will lead to the incompatibility of the versions we often say, and there is no such problem in the completely English version. So every version of the file can't be opened. There are two ways to solve this problem:

A: Open the file in the original version, save it in 8.0 format, and then open it in other versions.

B: Download the dedicated file converter.

Four, bitmap and vector diagram

To put it simply: vector diagrams are mostly geometric figures, which can be infinitely enlarged, not discolored or blurred. They are often used in the design of patterns, signs, VI, characters and so on. Software includes CORELDRAW, ILLUSTRATOR, FREEHAND, XARA Xara.

Bitmaps (also known as bitmaps) are patterns composed of countless color points. When you zoom in infinitely, you will see a piece of color, which will be distorted when you zoom in. Commonly used in image processing, film and television wedding renderings, such as common photos, scanning, digital photos and so on. Common tools and software: PHOTOSHOP, PAINTER, etc. 1, failed to create new file.

This is a printer installation failure. Delete the original printer or network printer, and then reinstall the local printer. If there is no local printer, please install the virtual printer that came with the system.

2. The file is damaged and cannot be opened.

In this case, consider backing up files first. If everything you have not set in the CDR has been backed up, it will be automatically backed up every 10 minute. The file name is: file name _ automatic backup. If you want to open it, just rename it, remove the "_ automatic backup" behind it, change it to "",and open it directly with CDR. If the novice or computer is not very stable, it is recommended not to turn off automatic backup.

Try to open it with AI. Generally, the damaged file AI can still be opened, but there may be some deviations in it, but it is better than not opening it. After opening AI, save it as EPS file, and then open it on CD.

3, the problem of text to curve.

It is suggested that if you want to print it out or take it to another computer to open the same file, the text must be bent, otherwise it will be unrecognizable. In addition, note that after the text is saved by curve, the text can no longer be edited, so it is best to save two files, one type of text and one type of curve, for future use.

4, paragraph text to curve problem

Freezing in the filter can be used to solve this problem. Draw a black rectangle on the paragraph text, turn on the filter-Transparency-100%, check Freeze, and then remove the text layer behind, leaving a curve.

This method does not apply to the text with superscript or subscript in the paragraph. There will be errors, for example, the superscript | subscript will become smaller after being converted into curves in this way. In contrast, it is safest to use the output WMF file to convert into curves.

5, paragraph text typesetting

If there is less text, use the clip art file (that is, click the text input tool to enter it directly in the page. If there are many words, you can use paragraph words (click the text input tool to pull a dotted box in the middle of the page and then type the text) to convert each other. Pay attention to punctuation at full and half angles. CDR compatibility is not very good. If you don't believe me, try using full-width double quotation marks. The text is all gone. When encountering special symbols such as single quotation marks, the solution is not to enter them first and then add them separately. If there are many words, it is suggested to use PAGEMAKER for typesetting, or first enter the file in WORD, then copy it, and then pull a paragraph text box in CDR for pasting. Note: In WORD, do not use spaces at the end of a paragraph. Go back to CDR, select the text format, align both ends, keep line spacing before paragraphs, and set it to 0 after paragraphs. Other defaults are enough.

If you want to copy word characters to a CD, you can try this method: first select the characters in the WORD file, then create a new text file somewhere and paste the characters into the text file. This method can avoid the problem that some special characters can't be displayed when pasted directly on the CD.

6. The problem of bitmap bottoming

The first method is to pick up the bitmap with a shaping tool, and shape the outer contour of the bitmap by adding, deleting and bending nodes, so as to remove the outer basemap. The second is to use the color mask tool in the filter, adjust an appropriate extension, pick up the background color to be removed, and click Apply, which can also remove the relatively monotonous base color map, which is good for transparency. Those who can PS directly use PS to generate PSD transparent background image.

7. Exchange of 7.PSD and CDR files.

CDR files need to be output in JPEG or PSD format if they are to be used in PSD. PSD can only input CDR directly, and the layer structure of PSD format file can be edited after it is dissolved in CD. Pay attention to the scale and actual pixels when paying attention to the CDR output bitmap. If you output once, you need to click the lock on the right or the option of 1: 1 next time.

8. Simple multi-outline fonts

You just need to input text, copy several contours you want, thicken the thickness and color of each contour in turn, and then arrange them in the order from coarse to fine and from back to front.

9. Simple shortcut keys:

ctrl+a？ Select all? Delete delete

ctrl+z？ Regret? Ctrl+x cut? Ctrl+c copy? Ctrl+v paste

E horizontal and middle alignment? R right alignment? T-top alignment Bottom alignment

C vertical middle alignment? L Align F4 to the left to return to the standard page? F9 full screen

Space bar? Switch between the current tool and the previous tool? Ctrl+t text format

ctrl+shift+& lt； & gt？ Adjust the kerning of single-line paragraph text (this step is more practical)

Ctrl+j opens the custom panel.

1 1, CDR ranking tips

Don't talk about full-page color painting, pay attention to the set of 10. If it is cut according to the standard: 55X90MM, pay attention to the spacing of 1MM in the middle. It is best to set corner lines around the corners for alignment, and make the first cut with a vertical line in the middle.

Selection of bitmap color.

If you import a bitmap and you want to make words in a certain color on the bitmap, you may die in the palette and can't find the same color. Try the straw tool on the left. If the eyedropper tool fails, please remember to convert the bitmap into a bitmap first, because once you edit the bitmap with the plastic tool, it is not a bitmap.

13. Opening a simple CDR file is very slow.

Is this a file virus or a CDR? I don't know. Bug. Anyway, many people meet. The solution I know is to open this file first and output it in CMX format, then reopen the CMX file and turn it into a CDR file. This can be solved, but there may be some changes in the detailed text. It is best to turn the text into a curve before outputting.

The common formats of vector software such as 14 and CDR are CMX, EPS, EMF and WMF.

15, CDR files should be exported to Wen Tai for carving, and first exported to PLT format. Even better, 1: 1, and pay attention to the words without outline, otherwise it will be engraved twice in the same position, resulting in paper breakage.

16, the problem of CDR color changing to fluorescent color, this question has been asked by many people in the bar recently, so please answer it in a unified way.

The first method: the problem of fluorescent color is the problem of color description file. Click (Tools)-(Color Management) and a window will appear. Adjust the window to adjust the color. Generally, the color of CDR will be cancelled. You can adjust it to be close to the printing color or download the description file here.

The second method:

1. Tools → Folder Options → View → Show all files and folders.

2. Find the Graphicsll folder and delete it completely.

C: documents? And then what? Set up the application? Data < lt hide folder > CorelGraphicsLL < lt delete this folder >

After deleting, restart Coreldraw 1 1, the color will be re-read, and it will be OK!

18. Customize the harmonic path: firstly, harmonic the linear effect of A to B, then draw a path, click the new path attribute, and then click the path curve to make an interactive gradient along the path. (This method is common in graphics, characters and combination patterns. )

19: plastic tool tip: when you use plastic tools to shape a curve, you often find that the lines are too sharp or stiff to be soft and natural. At this time, you only need to double-click the two sides of this node to add a node, and then double-click the middle node to delete it, so that the natural lines become smooth and smooth.

20: Bar code problem

9。 You need to customize the barcode installation of 0. Although there is one in the edit menu after installation, it cannot be used. 12 You can call directly. 9 You need to open the bar code editing tool in the startup program to edit the bar code of EAN 13 (China standard) (note: EAN 13 only needs to input the first 12, and the last one will be recognized automatically, so you don't need to input it directly to do the next step), and then you can open the CD program and paste it. If you want to paste it into vector format, you can change the position and size of the barcode. However, it should be noted that if it is for printing, the current bar code is in four colors, and you should change it to k 100.

2 1. Press and hold the alt key to directly select the contents of the layer below, and at the same time, you can box the contact selection like AI.

22. When accurately cropping an image, many people will encounter the situation that the image placed in the box is automatically centered. In fact, you can use ctrl+J to find an "automatic center of image cropping" and remove the tick, so you can crop the image in situ, much like the mask of AI.

23. The search function and replacement function of CDR are very powerful. I suggest you use it more, which will save you a lot of time.

24. Press the space bar to switch back and forth between the selected tool and the tool that has just been used, which is used to saving operation time? 25. Color management of CDR. Many people complain that the color display of CD is not as real as PS and AI. Indeed, CD is not as good as the first two in this respect, but I only tried it on CD 1 1. The definition of color management in it is very good, and it can completely display the same color as AI.

The problem of opening the high version of 26.9. In fact, the high-end version of CD can completely open the low-end version of the content, except CD9, because the CD9 Chinese used by everyone now has been changed in China. Historically, CD companies have never released a Chinese version of CD9. So the kernel file of CD9 was changed, which made CD9 incompatible with other versions. Patches and plug-ins can be used to generate standards. CDR file, but even so, sometimes the text will be confused.

27. cdr on MAC. Many people complain that CDR doesn't perform well on MAC. There's really nothing to do. CDR is only developed for PC. On MAC, corel has given up CD 12.

28.CDR can be automatically imposition. In print preview, you can make some simple imposition.

29, text stroke, in fact, the method is very simple, right-click to color him, put a tick in the property panel, so that his stroke does not occupy the position of the text.

30. Word to cdr? You can install a -RIP virtual printer on winxp, print it as a. png file, and then choose to put it in the cdr. There is an option to select curves when placing, but note that bold words in word are not necessarily good in cdr. Another way is to install an ac7 professional edition? Print word as a pdf file. I only tried to get a pdf file in cd 12. Cd9 has not succeeded yet.

3 1, bitmap to vector,? When installing cdr, you can install an accessory. CorelTRACE, and then right-click the bitmap directly in the cdr to draw a bitmap, so that you can easily enter the CorelTRACE interface and convert the bitmap into a vector diagram.

32. In ctrl+j, the choice of cdr can be changed to the same as ai. The mouse can drag in the frame without affecting the outer frame, and you can press alt to touch and select objects.

34. How to adjust the following operations in a CD: When pressing up, down, left and right keys, the selected object only moves a little.

On the premise of selecting nothing, adjust the property bar and then fine-tune the offset value, which is 3MM by default.

35. I use adobe? Why can't I see the table special character font on CD, but in Adobe? The table looks good.

It is normal. Use output to PSC. CDR does not support many special character sets.

36. CORELDRAW that has been downloaded many times will not work. It will become an unopened file after downloading! I'm really bored! Please beg me quickly, and I will thank you!

Generally, there are few files that can be directly installed with EXE downloaded from the Internet, and they are generally compressed files of RAR or ZIP. You need to extract these files before installation. If you can't extract them by right clicking, it means that your compression software is not installed. Online download: WINRAR or WINZIP.

If compression software is installed, it will prompt an error after decompression, which may kill viruses, especially the FUNLOVE virus, destroy compressed files and cause file errors.

37. I think the default color in coreldraw is wrong, which affects the color of the file. Specifically, the overall brightness is strange.

The reason is that the proofreading color and printer color are turned off. The solution is: press CTRL+J, click Wide Area-Color Management, and tick: correct the display color, and correct the tick in front of the analog printer color to confirm.

38. There are few text font types in CD12. How to install a new font for him?

After a system is installed, there are only about ten Chinese fonts. If you need more fonts, you need to install them yourself. Whether it's downloading or buying, it's convenient anyway. The main reason is that no matter what font is installed in the font directory of the system, all software can call this font. The directory is located at: c:windowsonts.

39. If this problem occurs, when you open coreldrw 12, a Welcome Application Recovery Manager wizard will appear.

Generally, these problems are mostly caused by the software itself. Please try to replace the disk or download a different version for reinstallation, and remember to completely delete the original file before installation.

40. During the installation process, the following prompt will appear: "Inside? Mistakes? 2500 1.？ No? Is that enough? Disk? Space? Where to? Excerpts? Isscript？ Engine? File ",the above prompt will also appear when uninstalling. Unable to operate.

Due to insufficient hard disk space. Here is a reminder, no matter what software, try not to install it to the default C drive. The larger the space reserved in C drive, the faster the software will run, and there is no need to reinstall other software in case of system failure. (It is recommended to divide the disk: disk C system disk, disk D software area, disk E file area, disk F game music video area and disk G backup area).

4 1, how to convert PC CorelDRAW file into MAC? Illustrator file is not garbled?

Try to output: EPS, AI, WMF and other formats.

42. Prompt to open the file failed. I use coreldrare 12 version, and I do typesetting. After saving, the file size is 330M. You can't save the operation directly now. There is always an error. I also changed the system, but it didn't work. I also used more than 1G memory, which was useless. What is the reason?

I don't know if you are arranging books or a single poster, it's just this big. CDR found a BUG, that is, unexpected bugs appeared when the file was too large, which existed in all versions. It can only be said that when typesetting, you can use fewer pictures, bitmap pictures and interactive effects as little as possible. In addition, if it is not necessary, you don't have to correspond to the size one by one, and try to control the file size. But if you use it in books and magazines, it is recommended to use PAGEMAKER or INDESIGN, which is their place. Although CDR is fully qualified for typesetting, it is not its strength. Unless you fully master the CDR typesetting function and skills, try not to use CDR to arrange multi-page pages. It is ok to organize newspapers. (There is also a small picture, sometimes it doesn't have to be high pixel or large size, 10CM.

How to make multiple posters in coreldraw, that is, how to set up double-sided posters as our boss said? You can set the poster size first, then copy a poster with the same size, and then lock the frame, and you can design within this range.
