New! Perspective Drawing

In CorelDRAW 2021, it's easier than ever to draw objects or scenes in perspective. This new feature is based on the principles of perspective

projection and boosts productivity by eliminating the need to first set up complex grids.

To get you started, there are presets for four types of perspective drawing, which are easily customizable by adjusting any part of the

perspective field. The possibilities are limitless thanks to the ability to create multiple perspective groups each with their own unique

perspective field within the same page or document.

Whether you want to produce textures and patterns for your illustrations, deliver distinctive sketches of product ideas, or generate proof of

concept designs that have the illusion of depth and distance, perspective drawing can help accomplish the task at hand with ease.

New! Multi-asset Export

CorelDRAW 2021 lets you create a customized list of assets to export with one click. The new Export inspector has a range of flexible, time-

saving options for outputting pages and objects.

In a couple of clicks, you can send pages or objects to multiple industry-standard formats, including PDF. The same design element can be

simultaneously exported with different settings by duplicating it in the Export inspector and modifying the output options. Or you can export

several items at the same time using identical preferences.

Export a list of pages and objects to a range of formats in a single click.

Enhanced! Image Adjustment

Corel PHOTO-PAINT 2021 introduces a range of features and enhancements to deliver more efficient, accurate image editing. The new

Adjustments inspector gives instant access to the most critical and frequently used filters, letting you quickly work non-destructively, in real

time, and in context. What’s more, the brand new Local Adjustment Mode simplifies targeting a filter to a specific image area. For more

information, see “Adjustments inspector” on page 132.

The Replace Colors filter has been rebuilt from the ground up. Improved color pickers and eyedropper tools allow for more precise editing,

and a new interactive control makes fine-tuning hue and saturation ranges more intuitive. Corel PHOTO-PAINT 2021 has also added a slider

to help ensure smoother color transitions between selected and unselected pixels. For more information, see “Replace Colors” on page

151.

New! HEIF Support

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite 2021 lets you take advantage of photos captured on mobile phones with High Efficiency Image File (HEIF)

support. Many devices use HEIF as the default capture format because it delivers smaller file sizes without sacrificing picture quality. You can

import or open the key image from HEIF files in Corel PHOTO-PAINT or import it into a drawing in CorelDRAW. For more information, see

“High Efficiency Image File Format (HEIF)” on page 515.
