So 2023 can save images as: BMP, CAL, CALS, CLP, CUT, DCX, DIB, EMF, EPS, AI, PS, GIF, GIF, HDP, WDP, IFF, IMG, JP2, J2K, JPC, JPG, JIF, JPE, JPEG, MAC, MSP, PBM, PCX, PGM, PIC, PPM, PNG, PSD, PSP (PSPIMAGE FILES), RAS, RAW, RIF, RIFF, RLE, SCT, CT, JPS, PNS, TGA, TGA, TIF, TIFF, WBMP, WBM, WEBP, WMF. They evidently want to pin us down, forcing us to keep it so we cannot use any other (especially, open source) software. and ruined it! I have just upgraded to the PSP 2023 version and it still does not support export to svg. I've been using it since it was owned by Jasc (I think it was version 3, so very ancient), long before Corel bought it. It would be AMAZING if I could import those pspimages into Inkscape.

It creates vectors too but only as a *.pspimage. There are a lot of users who use Corel's PaintShop Pro (PSP), including myself. It would suggest that the learning curve moving from CorelDRAW to Inkscape would be slightly flatter. Especially since CorelDRAW's basic interface was inspired by the original Acorn Archimedes version of Xara X, which some say also inspired Inkscape. At the very least one cannot doubt that these two apps are popular.ĬorelDRAW in particular. I don't know about the rest of Asia, but I suspect similar. But in Indonesia, at least, CorelDRAW (most of Java and Sumatra) and Freehand (in Jakarta and other major cities) rule. Illustrator is the most popular vector graphics package in the continental United States, yes.
