corel will not import PDF files
« on: September 23, 2013, 07:35:14 AM »
My darn corel 12 or computer, or tooth fairy will not let me import just about any PDF file I get via e-mail.
I either get file is corrupt or the more common INTERNAL FILTER ERROR. I have been through Corel help topics on internal filter  and get ZIP

can anyone suggest a fix this is really getting me pi$$ed off >:(

Did he just open a file for you or offer some insight into the problem?

I certainly don't always get a totally accurate version of a pdf in my CorelDRAW X6, (when checked against Reader)
That rug really tied the room together, did it not?

I offered to open it in X6, I have no other insight Frogger, just lending a hand.

Last week, I had a file sent in jpg, and pdf.
It was a paint roller with a swath of paint blending from navy blue to green to red.

In Reader, the pdf looked fine.
In CorelDRAW, only the Navy was visible.


Fortuanety, it was a digital job, so the jpg was sufficient, but, as I said, some of these pdf's created in Illy, do not open properly in CorelDRAW. I assume that it was a layer issue.

I'm glad for the Moose man  that X6 and Homer were able to help on this one.

Hey Frog, Jay was able to convert it to CDR and I am good to trace from here.
Again thanks to you also for always being on the ball for tadploes like me.
BTW stumbled onto this web site you might find it interesting it is pretty extensive      http://allaboutfrogs.org/froglnd.shtml
