How do you compare Photoshop 6 with Corel Draw 10? I use Windows XP on Dell Pentium 3 system.

I am making some color graphic pictures such as American flags with overlay patterns. I also will be making some color graphic decals and labels and logos. I know how to use Photoshop 6 better than Corel Draw. Should I learn Corel Draw 10 to do this task?

Thank you.

Photoshop deals primarily with RASTER images ie photographic type images Coral deals primarily with VECTOR images ie flat areas of colour but both programs can do both it’s a matter of how much time you have to learn how to use them, Both have a high leasrning curves and take some time to master.

For drawing typical color graphic labels with logos and titles, is there anything Corel Draw can do that Photoshop cannot do well? Thanks.

That’s like saying "Can you help me compare a hacksaw to a wrench?" You are comparing two completely different kinds of tools that are used for doing entirely different kinds of tasks.

Photoshop is an image editor; it works with images that are made up of pixels. CorelDRAW is a vector drawing program; it works with images made up of mathematical lines.

Everything. Because you should be using vector graphics for which Corel Draw is designed, not raster graphics for which Photoshop is designed.

Photoshop is an image editor; it works with images that are made up of pixels. CorelDRAW is a vector drawing program; it works with images made up of mathematical lines.

Adobe published a book called ‘Classroom in a Book’. Just have a look at the latter half of that and it will take you in to Vector Shapes and clipping paths. I certainly have enough to learn and keep up to date with Photoshop.

Yes, Photoshop has some limited vector capability. It is, however, nothing like Illustrator or CorelDRAW, and is not a substitute for those programs.

Photoshop works primarily in raster (pixel). Even with vector shapes, the fill is still treated as raster.

Can you please tell me what I can do using vector graphic? I know how to edit pictures using Photoshop. But have no idea what vector graphic can do? I have tried Corel Draw 10 to edit pictures and starting to learn editing layers. However, I have lot more difficulties learning Corel Draw compare to Photoshop.

"Vector" graphics are graphics made up of mathematical descriptions of shapes and lines.

Examples of vector graphics include logos, linework, fonts, and so forth. A vector graphic can be scaled to absolutely any size, from postage stamp to billboard, with zero loss of quality, and will always print razor-sharp and smooth at any size.

You can not use a vector program to edit a photograph, such as a scanned image or a digital camera shot. These programs are used to create and edit line art and logos, that sort of thing.

Hi Adam,

It’s just a thought, and without wanting to sound patronising, but as part of the whole package called ‘Corel Draw’, there is an image editing module/program called ‘Photo-Paint’. This program, with it’s slightly misleading name(!), is actually an image/pixel/raster editing program, which although not exactly the same, is nevertheless the same ‘type’ of program as, Adobe Photoshop.

I just wondered reading your posts if you were mistakingly quoting the name of the whole package (Corel Draw), rather than the program you really meant (Photo-Paint)?

Hopefully this post might be slightly more help to you than dictionary definitions, hammers and wrenches!

Best wishes Darrell Burnett.
