Features Packed with Artificial Intelligence
Process images in high gear with AI-powered upsampling and JPEG artifact removal and enjoy next-level bitmap-to-vector trace results, made exceptional by machine learned algorithms.
Other Features include:
Axonometric Drawing Tools

Create isometric or other parallel projected technical illustrations for assembly and maintenance instructions by dynamically drawing on a projected plane. Project your existing planar objects to a desired plane in lieu of manual calculations.
Advanced Dimension Tools
Eliminate the need to draw and project dimension objects in multiple steps thanks to the dimension tools. Display precise measurement values in building plans and more. Add context with projected arrows in dimensions and leader lines.
Streamlined Callout Creation

Track essential design details and have Callouts dynamically update and change when based on object metadata. Connect or "stick" to source objects as they are modified with Sticky callouts. New Legless Callouts are perfect to add when a callout doesn’t need a leader line.
Drawing Scale Control
Create illustrations and diagrams to scale with the drawing scale control. View the active drawing scale, switch to another preset, or set a custom scale. Corel DESIGNER retains the drawing scale when importing a vector illustration from a 3D model view so imported views are placed at scale.
Hotshot Capabilities

Add interactive functions to callout shapes in technical publications with the callout drawing tool in Corel DESIGNER. Draw and attach callouts to nested groups by automatically applying hotspots and object information on callouts, saving you time.
Object Styles & Presets
Ensure a consistent look, style, and layout throughout your design projects with Object Styles, Color Styles and Color Harmonies. Explore preloaded Style Sets that follow S1000D technical illustration standards, complete with quick keys for a faster workflow.
Equation Editor
Mathematical and scientific formulas can be inserted and displayed in the drawing, and then modified as needed. Existing equations from older CorelDRAW documents can be opened or imported for use in Corel DESIGNER equations.
Straighten & Adjust Photos Interactively
Rotate crooked images by interactively aligning a straightening bar to an element in the photo or specifying an angle of rotation. Use the interactive Perspective Correction tool to adjust the perspective of buildings, landmarks, or objects in photos.
Wrap Objects Around Cylinders
The new Wrap feature makes it quick and easy to precisely wrap an object around a cylinder or ellipse, like adding a label to a bottle.
Collaborative Review and Approval

Use CorelDRAW.app to share .DES and .CDR files and get feedback from key stakeholders in real time. Streamline the design review process and get feedback from multiple clients or colleagues right in your working file.
Comment & Annotate
Keep everyone on the same page by viewing, responding to, and resolving feedback with the new Comments docker in CorelDRAW® and Corel DESIGNER™. Easily add detailed comments and mark-up annotations directly on the document.
Thick and Thin Line Drawing

Easily add depth to an isometric with the timesaving new Thick and thin line drawing mode. Automatically apply two line weights at once and reverse them in a click.
Scale Halos with Outlines
When it comes to adding halos on lines, enjoy the new ability to lock the ratio between your outline width and halo width for seamless scaling.
Add Perspective Effect

Quickly create the illusion of distance and depth by applying perspective to bitmaps, vector objects, or both, directly in the drawing window. It’s an ingenious tool to showcase technical illustrations in real world scenarios.
Add Envelopes to Bitmaps
Shape a bitmap interactively by placing it in an envelope and dragging its nodes. Quickly and seamlessly blend a bitmap into an illustration by using envelope presets or crafting a custom envelope from scratch.
GPU Accelerated Previews

Reposition and edit complex vector shapes without taxing your system’s resources. Using the graphics processing unit (GPU) may accelerate the display, editing, and manipulation of graphics in Corel DESIGNER, CorelDRAW and Corel PHOTO-PAINT on some machines.
Symmetry Drawing Mode
Create a range of symmetrical designs, from simple objects to complex effects in real time, and boost your productivity by automating what is usually a very time-consuming workflow.
3D PDF Publishing
