CorelDraw improves with new AI-assisted features and cloud capabilities.

CorelDRAW 2024 introduces Vector FX, a new feature powered by artificial intelligence.

Alludo has introduced significant updates for its CorelDRAW Graphics Suite 2024 and CorelDRAW Technical Suite, featuring new tools and functions designed to enhance user flexibility, efficiency, and creativity. Among the standout innovations is Vector FX, an artificial intelligence application that allows users to create vector graphics more easily through text commands. This tool generates scalable graphics that can be edited and refined directly in CorelDRAW.

In addition to Vector FX, the update includes improvements to the Painterly Brush tool, which now features new pixel-based brushes exclusively for subscribers. These brushes enable users to adjust characteristics such as texture, density, smoothing, and brightness. The interface has also been optimized, providing a dedicated tab in the properties window for more efficient brush property management.

Another new feature in the suite is the integration of the latest Pantone color palettes, offering 175 new shades at no additional cost. This addition, along with the Brush Favorites function for saving frequently used brushes and the new Focus Mode for distraction-free work, aims to enrich the user experience.

Furthermore, CorelDRAW now allows for the creation of customized printed materials, including QR codes and data from Excel spreadsheets, simplifying the production of marketing brochures, invitations, and labels.

The subscription model for CorelDRAW Graphics Suite 2024 provides instant access to new updates and exclusive tools like Vector FX and a set of 50 new brushes. It also offers access to a cloud library with over 500 templates, compared to the 200 available in the one-time purchase option. However, the latter ensures indefinite use of the software without recurring fees, although it does not include ongoing updates.

The annual subscription price is set at $269, while the one-time purchase costs $549. Both versions are accessible on Windows and macOS operating systems, and they are also compatible with web access for subscribers and maintenance customers, available in multiple languages.
