Corel CONNECT to view & install fonts
As a user of CorelDRAW and Corel PHOTO-PAINT you may be used to Bitstream navigator to view and install your fonts. With Corel CONNECT X7 you can easily go online using Content Exchange in Corel CONNECT ”Libraries”, the tree column to the left.
Click and select Content exchange and select Fonts. In the Fonts foldes you can rather quickly browse around the fonts and install either by hoovering over the font thumb preview or simply right click and choose either Install fonts or the Install font family.
For those who know which font they are looking for, this might be the best quick way to find and install the fonts that comes with CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X7. I use it this way myself and it works like a charm.
This is just one way of doing it of course.

With X7 Update the ability to search on the fonts was updated, making it easier to find fonts than before. In previous versions you could only search on font name. After X7 Update 1 you can also search on weight (light, extra light, regular, bold, extra bold…), width (condensed, normal, expanded…), style (bold, oblique, italic…) and OpenType features supported (er…just too many to list here :> ).
Hi Tony, those improvements are a true help no doubt.
