  CorelDraw changing the colour!!

  Posted by Stacey Clinch on 10 September 2009 at 13:42

  HELP!

  I am trying to export a file in Corel Draw – the image has 3 boxes which I’ve used a green colour fill.

  When I export the image – the 3 boxes show in black.
  I have tried all sorts of things to get around it – but nothing seems to work.
  Does anyone know what I am doing wrong??

  Hiya George

  Thanks for getting back to me so quickly…..I should have put that in the original e-mail – SORRY!

  I designed the image in CorelDraw – saved it as a cdr file, then when I open it in Corel PhotoPaint that is when the boxes change colour.

  It is probably something really simple – but I am just having one of those days. 😳

  Thanks

  sound like when you open it in corelpaint it is opening in greyscale there is a dropdown which gives you rgb cmyk greyscale etc try that option

  Umm, there are a couple of photo images on there too, and they seem to transfer no problem and are showing in colour……this is why I am getting really confused now!

  Hiya George

  I’ve just converted the damn file to a jpg in CorelDraw and that seems to have worked now, so I am not going to waste any more time on it now.

  Thanks for your help.

  Sorry to have been a pain.
