How to insert text in Corel DRAW?
There are 2 ways to add text to a Corel DRAW project and we will explain what they are:
Paragraph text
With it we can add a large amount of text, that is, more than 10 lines, with the text tool that we can access by a shortcut (F8) and inside paste text that we have copied from a word processor.
In the event that this is very long, we must place the remaining text in another box of “Paragraph text” . Columns and images in “Paragraph text”: columns are only possible in this type of text and are used to bring an order around a predefined image.
Images in this type of text must first be imported into the document and then make the “Paragraph text” box, in this way we will be able to adapt it with the “Adjust text” option that will allow us to do it automatically.
Artistic text
This type of text is characterized by not containing a physical text box, it is commonly used to make titles in a project that will only let us make changes to the size, font and other text characteristics.
How to insert paragraph text in Corel DRAW?
- Enter Corel DRAW and create a new blank document. If you haven’t installed it yet, you can download the Corel DRAW program easily.
- To add a paragraph text, the first thing we must do are text frames.
- To insert text frames, all that remains is to create with the “Text” tool so that we will drag the frame over the area to place the text and when we release the click, a text frame will automatically be created.
- Within this framework we can make a paragraph text, if we have a text that we must copy from a website or another document we must go to it, copy the text and return to Corel DRAW to paste it within our text frame.
- In this way we will obtain a paragraph text where we can modify it from its size, color, format and alignment just by using the “Selection” tool and dragging on the paragraph text.
- In the event that we need to place an image on its side, remember that we must first place the image in our project and then proceed to create paragraph text.
Consider:
Corel DRAW allows you to automatically adjust the text to the size you want and within this text you can host internal links in certain words.
We just have to click on the “Text” tool , select it within the text frame and assign a hyperlink with the “New link” button that will open a window where you can assign the type of link that will be a website, an address e-mail, a file inside your computer or a bookmark to another text space.
