CorelDRAW Premium Suite – What’s Included That’s Not in Graphics Suite?

emily — Tue, 10 May 2011 13:02:35 +0000

Whether you’re a novice or a professional, as a designer using brand name design software, you are used to having to spend some time figuring out which version of a particular program you need. That’s why SoftwareMedia posts plenty of useful software guides to help make your decision making as easy as pie.

The latest designer’s software conundrum? What is included in CorelDRAW Premium Suite that is not in regular Graphics Suite? CorelDRAW can be compared to Adobe’s Creative Suite line, which has different edition variations like Web, Design, Production and Master Collection.

In Corel’s case, just two variations on DRAW are available: Premium Suite and Graphics Suite. Both contain the main graphics software you’d expect, like CorelDRAW, Photo Paint, Power Trace and Connect. See what’s in Premium Suite that’s not in Graphics Suite in this article written by the SoftwareMedia.com team.

I hope we have helped to make your decision on CorelDRAW a little easier. If you have a request for an article or guide, please submit it to snd@softwaremedia.com.

CorelDRAW was revolutionary when it was first introduced in 1989. It continues to be one of the most widely used graphic design programs of the day. Whether you use CorelDRAW for graphic design (print ads, brochures, websites) or for everyday tasks (creating diagrams, designs for home projects, etc.), there’s no question why you love it so much. It’s cheaper, faster and more intuitive than many other programs in its category.
