Well Carl, I'm going to pick you brain again on another feature of Corel which may or may not be available. I have a customer who needs some text engraved, but not in English, but Russian. I did find a online text translator which I can enter the English text and it will convert it over to Russian, after which time I then copy/paste to corel. Just thought maybe it was possible todo this in corel alone. This is the first time I have ever had anyone ask for this tobe done so its a new one one me..
Thanks
Mike

Why not ask your customer to send you the copy without the line numbers?

Are you asking if the translation can be done in CorelDraw? Not that I know of and I really wouldn't recommend that you do it that way even it was possible. I would strongly suggest that you get the Russian text in the correct format, directly from your customer,. Language translation can be a very inexact 'science'.

Most characters require key combinations.
They gave me several types of Laotion fonts.
He brings in a doc file with his wording.
I open it and then can copy and paste it into coreldraw or Xenetech for making the layout fit the product.
