Can't open old CorelDraw (v4?) file - help please!
tomos:
Freehand 9 says it can open *.cdr but not this one...

OK, now I remember why I gave up on using pages - they're a nightmare to manage :-[
And now I remember why I tend to use Screenshot Captor instead of exporting :-[
I know, I know; we spent a heap of £ on something we don't use properly, but come on, have you ever tried using Inkscape? I'd happily work down a coalmine a month to save up to buy ANYTHING that meant I didn't need to use Inkscape ;)
Anyway, back to Shaun.
I've exported all the pages to separate eps files (seems like that's the only way). The page size seems to have got lost on the way but I assume that's manageable?
Amazingly the eps files together are 68Mb but zip down to less than 4Mb :o
Are we getting there?
PS - you may have noticed that right now I'd rather be doing ANYTHING than my proper work :D
Ampa:
katykaty: Thank you!!! :-*
I realise that it isn't going to win the Nobel Prize for literature, but it amused me to write it, and fun to see it again after many years. I originally printed two copies (so that as a limited edition it would be worth a fortune!) but no longer have either copy :(
katykaty:
You're welcome :D
And now I'm going to print out that pdf - which will make it the only copy in the world, and therefore extremely valuable - and cash in :)
I'm rich, rich beyond my wildest dreams :D
Grorgy:
We could all flood the market ;D
