I have v12 and the symbols are on disk 2 under extra fonts and the borders are on the same disk under clipart. If you can't find the symbol you are looking for there, just ask here and someone will have it.</p> <hr /><a name="a4749_6"></a><p><b>From: Nick (NICKIONPOE)</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=4749.6">#6</a>]<br /> 4 Sep 2006<br /><b>To: Barbara (RGILE)</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=4749.1">#1</a>] 5 Sep 2006</p> <p>Hi there. I had a problem getting to the symbols too. Here is how I fixed it. I went to control panel on my computer, when to fonts. I added the particular group of symbols that I wanted for instance animals1. So from control panel, choose fonts, when there select file and you will see a selection that says add new font. Search for the file on your disk and select the category you want. It will load it as a font. Then when you go back into Corel go to the text tab, select insert character, use the pull down to find the category (ie. animals, festive, etc.).. it will display all the symbols....click and hit insert. The rest you can figure out. Hope that was clear... hope it helps you out. That drove me nuts... until I finally figured it out. </p> <p>Good luck.</p> <p>Nicole</p><hr /><a name="a4749_7"></a><p><b>From: Stunt Engraver (DGL)</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=4749.7">#7</a>]<br /> 4 Sep 2006<br /><b>To: Nick (NICKIONPOE)</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=4749.6">#6</a>] 5 Sep 2006</p> Thank you Nicole, and a hearty welcome to our newest member. <span class="e_smile" title=":-)"><span class="e__">:-)</span> </span> <hr /><a name="a4749_8"></a><p><b>From: Nick (NICKIONPOE)</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=4749.8">#8</a>]<br /> 5 Sep 2006<br /><b>To: Stunt Engraver (DGL)</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=4749.7">#7</a>] 5 Sep 2006</p> Thanks for your kindness.

They are listed as symbols/animals1, symbols/borders1, symbols/borders 2 and so on. <br /> I cannot find these symbols. I have looked in the clipart and they have a sybols folder, but they are not these.<br /> I also found the font folder in the control panel like suggested, and cannot find them that way either.<br /> <br /> I have also looked on all of my discs and cannot find them.<br /> I don't know if they are hidden somewhere, or if I am just stupid.<br /> <br /> Help please. Corel 11, is what I need.<br /> Thanks again,<br /> Barb <hr /><a name="a4749_10"></a><p><b>From: Dave Jones (DAVERJ)</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=4749.10">#10</a>]<br /> 6 Sep 2006<br /><b>To: Barbara (RGILE)</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=4749.9">#9</a>] 6 Sep 2006</p> Instead of using control panel, look on the Corel disc for a font folder and see if any of the fonts have similar names to what you are looking for (maybe abreviations or containing some of the letters in the names). You might be able to double click the fonts there to see what is inside them.<hr /><a name="a4749_11"></a><p><b>From: Barbara (RGILE)</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=4749.11">#11</a>]<br /> 6 Sep 2006<br /><b>To: Dave Jones (DAVERJ)</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=4749.10">#10</a>] 6 Sep 2006</p> I will give it a try, <br /> Thanks <hr /><a name="a4749_12"></a><p><b>From: Mike (MIKEN)</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=4749.12">#12</a>]<br /> 6 Sep 2006<br /><b>To: Barbara (RGILE)</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=4749.11">#11</a>] 12 Sep 2006</p> <p>Look on disc 2 in the extra fonts folder then symbols. That is where they are located and you'll have to load them as fonts rather than clipart.</p> <p>Just put the disc 2 in and have Font Navigator ready and you can use FN to install the ones you want or all of them.</p> <p>I don't think you can view them except in the book until you load them.</p><p class="edit_text">EDITED: 6 Sep 2006 by MIKEN</p> <hr /><a name="a4749_13"></a><p><b>From: varn (VARNCO)</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=4749.13">#13</a>]<br /> 6 Sep 2006<br /><b>To: Mike (MIKEN)</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=4749.12">#12</a>] 6 Sep 2006</p> <p>Didn't someone post a link to software available free on the internet that helps categorize the Corel Draw Image Disks into a more usable search?</p> <p>I think someone posted it on the forum, but I can't recall.</p><hr /><a name="a4749_14"></a><p><b>From: Carl (CSEWELL)</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=4749.14">#14</a>]<br /> 7 Sep 2006<br /><b>To: varn (VARNCO)</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=4749.13">#13</a>] 7 Sep 2006</p> Are you thinking of <a href="http://www.unleash.com/articles/romcat/">ROMCat</a>?<br /> <br /> <a href="http://www.unleash.com/articles/romcat/">http://www.unleash.com/articles/romcat/</a> <hr /><a name="a4749_15"></a><p><b>From: varn (VARNCO)</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=4749.15">#15</a>]<br /> 7 Sep 2006<br /><b>To: Carl (CSEWELL)</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=4749.14">#14</a>] 7 Sep 2006</p> <p>Yes, that was it.</p> <p>But, it appears that it won't work so great if they stopped adding descriptions to their roms.</p><hr /><p align="center">Show messages: <a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=4749.1">All</a>  <a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=4749.1">1-4</a>  5-15</p> <h4><a href="lthread_list.php?webtag=EE">Back to thread list</a> | <a href="llogout.php?webtag=EE">Login</a></h4> <h6>© 2024 <a href="http://www.beehiveforum.net/" target="_blank">Project Beehive Forum</a></h6> </body>
