SUMMARY

CorelDRAW! is a graphic design application with powerful text manipulation capabilities. To perform these functions, version 2.x of CorelDRAW! uses special outline fonts internal to the application, or fonts imported through the CorelDRAW! WFNBOSS.EXE utility.

At this time, the WFNBOSS utility does not provide the ability to import TrueType fonts for use in CorelDRAW!.

MORE INFORMATION

If text is pasted into CorelDRAW! that was copied or cut from another application, CorelDRAW! converts it to one of the internal CorelDRAW! fonts for display or manipulation.

For these reasons, TrueType and other fonts that are visible in Write or other Windows applications are not available in CorelDRAW!.

CorelDRAW! is manufactured by Corel Corporation, a vendor independent of Microsoft; we make no warranty, implied or otherwise, regarding this product's performance or reliability.
