Thanks for your kindness. I snoop around here a lot but usually don't have anything useful to supply. This is an excellent forum, full of lots of great information and inspiring advice.

Hello Everyone,

I am looking for the symbols that they are showing in front of the book that came with Corel 11.
In the front there are many pages with black and white graphics called symbols. They are listed as symbols/animals1, symbols/borders1, symbols/borders 2 and so on.
I cannot find these symbols. I have looked in the clipart and they have a sybols folder, but they are not these.
I also found the font folder in the control panel like suggested, and cannot find them that way either.

I have also looked on all of my discs and cannot find them.
I don't know if they are hidden somewhere, or if I am just stupid.

Help please. Corel 11, is what I need.
Thanks again,
Barb

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.

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.

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.

I don't think you can view them except in the book until you load them.

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?

I think someone posted it on the forum, but I can't recall.

Are you thinking of ROMCat?

Yes, that was it.

But, it appears that it won't work so great if they stopped adding descriptions to their roms.
