Saving files for importing into other documents
When saving files in CorelDRAW for importing into other types of documents, use the EPS
file format. CorelDRAW saves all color information in CMYK, so RGB Source and
Rendering Style print options have no effect on color output of artwork saved with
CorelDRAW and imported into other kinds of documents. In the case of CorelDRAW files
imported into Photoshop, however, vector data from the CorelDRAW file is rasterized into
bitmaps in Photoshop, and the final color space of the bitmap data is determined by the color
mode you set in Photoshop.
