CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X4英文版本的發布了，估計中文版還要一年以后才能有呢。去年剛剛發布了X3的中文版，今年剛剛過完新年，X4就出來了，一些CD迷該歡喜了。

Corel公司今天正式發布了其矢量繪圖軟件CorelDraw的第十四個版本，版本號延續為X4，也就是“CorelDraw Graphics Suite X4”，繼續與Adobe Illustrator展開競爭。

Corel稱，CorelDraw X4相比兩年前的CorelDraw X3加入了大量新特性，總計有50項以上，其中值得注意的亮點有文本格式實時預覽、字體識別、頁面無關層控制、交互式工作臺控制等等。

在Windows Vista開始普及的今天，CorelDraw X4也與時俱進，整合了新系統的桌面搜索功能，可以按照作者、主題、文件類型、日期、關鍵字等文件屬性進行搜索，還新增了在線在線協作工具“ConceptShare”(概念分享)。

此外，CorelDraw X4還增加了對大量新文件格式的支持，包括Microsoft Office Publisher、Illustrator CS3、Photoshop CS3、PDF 8、AutoCAD DXF/DWG、Painter X等等等等。

作為一個套裝，CorelDraw X4繼續整合了抓圖工具Capture、點陣圖矢量圖轉換工具Trace、剪貼圖庫與像素編輯工具Paint，其中Paint增加了對RAW相機文件格式的支持，還引入了一個新的自動控制功能“Straighten Image”，可以交互式快速調整傾斜的掃描圖和照片。

CorelDraw X4套裝完整版建議零售價429美元，舊版升級價格199美元，將于2月份起開始出貨，語言版本包括英語、法語、德語、意大利語、荷蘭語、西班牙語、巴西葡萄牙語等。

平面矢量繪圖軟件CorelDRAW(R) Graphics Suite X4英文版于當地時間2008年1月22日正式發布，官方亦提供了30天的試用版。

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X4 features more than 50 new and significantly enhanced features, including:

-- New! Live text formatting: CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X4 introduces live text formatting, allowing users to preview text formatting options before applying them to a document. With this time-saving feature, users can now preview many different formatting options, including fonts, font size, and alignment, removing the "trial-and-error" typically associated with the design process.

-- New! Font identification: CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X4 now integrates with WhatTheFont(TM), the online font identification service from MyFonts.com. Users can save time by quickly identifying the font used in existing bitmap designs, artwork or other images received from clients.

-- New! Independent page layers: Users can now control and edit layers independently for each page of a document, reducing the occurrence of pages with empty layers. Users can also add independent guidelines for individual pages and master guidelines for an entire document. This gives users the ability to create different layers on a page-specific basis, unconfined by a single document structure.

-- New! Interactive tables: The new, interactive Table tool in CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X4 lets users create and import tables to provide a powerful, structured layout for text and graphics. Users can easily align, resize, or edit tables and table cells to suit their designs. In addition, users can convert delimited text and easily add and adjust images in individual cells.

-- Enhanced! Windows Vista(R) integration: CorelDRAW Graphics Suite is the only professional graphics suite Certified for Windows Vista(R). CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X4 has been designed to take advantage of the latest innovations from Windows Vista, while still offering a superior experience for Windows(R) XP users. CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X4 integrates with the desktop search capabilities of Windows Vista directly from within the Open and Import dialog boxes, enabling users to search for files by author, subject, file type, date, keywords, or other file properties. Users can also easily add their own keywords, ratings or other notes when saving files in order to better organize their projects.

-- New! CorelDRAW(R) ConceptShare(TM) integration: The new CorelDRAW(R) ConceptShare(TM) docker, accessible from within CorelDRAW Graphics Suite, integrates a valuable online collaboration tool directly within the user workflow. In a Web-based environment, CorelDRAW ConceptShare lets users share their designs and ideas with colleagues or clients in real time. Users can easily create multiple workspaces, upload their designs, and invite others to provide feedback or submit their own ideas without sending large files over email.

-- New! File format support: CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X4 maintains its position as market leader in file format compatibility by adding support for Microsoft(R) Office Publisher. Users can also expect seamless compatibility with Microsoft Word 2007, Adobe Illustrator(R) Creative Suite(R) 3, Adobe Photoshop(R) CS3, PDF 1.7 (Adobe(R) Acrobat(R) 8), AutoCAD(R) DXF(TM) and AutoCAD(R) DWG(TM), and Corel Painter(TM) X, making it easier than ever to exchange files with clients and colleagues.

-- New! Professionally designed templates: CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X4 includes 80 professionally designed and customizable templates, giving users a springboard to the design process. Flexible and easy to customize, the templates are accompanied by Designer Notes that provide information on the design choices made for the template, tips for outputting a design based on the template, and instructions for customizing the template while still adhering to design principles.

-- New! Specialized fonts: An extended selection of new fonts in CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X4 helps users ensure their output is optimized for its intended audience. This specialized collection of fonts includes single-line engraving fonts and OpenType(R) cross-platform fonts, which offer enhanced language support for Latin, Greek, and Cyrillic outputs in WGL4 format.

-- New! Welcome screen: With a new Welcome screen, CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X4 provides users with a centralized location to access recently used documents, templates, and learning tools, which include Tips & Tricks and video tutorials. To inspire users, the Welcome screen also includes a gallery that showcases designs created by CorelDRAW Graphics Suite users from around the world.
