Customer Reviews & Comments As a long time Coreldraw user, I found this to be one of the best Coredraw books that I have read (especially helpful since the Coreldraw 10 ships with such a flimsy manual that is pretty much useless). I found this book to be well written and extremely easy to follow. All the features of the program are covered in such great detail that I couldn't wait to try them out. My one BIG COMPLAINT - is that it took me a while to realize that "type" "fills" and "outlines" are not covered in the book, but instead included on the extra "bonus" CD PDF chapters. I think that these are such basic elements of Coreldraw that they should have been included in the book instead of on the "bonus" CD. To get this information you have to either view or print out the 200+ pages from the PDF files. I feel that these chapters should have been included in the book (perhaps putting the information on RAVE and Scripts, etc. on the CD instead) and that Osborne/Corel Press should clarify on the cover what the "bonus" CD includes and let the consumer decide if they feel like taking the time to finish printing out what should have been included in the book. Even with my one complaint, I do feel this is great reference book to help you learn or update your skills with Coreldraw.
