Upgrading Your CorelDRAW X8 Suite to a New Computer

Are you a fan of CorelDRAW and want to keep your suite up-to-date on your new device? If so, this article is for you! We'll guide you through the process of manually transferring your CorelDRAW applications from one computer to another. Although we'll also cover the automatic option, we understand that sometimes you might prefer a more hands-on approach.

Manual Migration: The Step-by-Step Guide

Before we dive into the migration process, let's take a look at what you can expect to transfer. You'll be moving formats like CDR (the default CorelDRAW file format), EPS, SVG, PDF, DXF, DWG, RAW, TIFF files, and many others. This includes vector images, presets, plugins, fonts, symbols, logos, illustrations, print layouts, custom palettes, drop shadows, macros, outline types, command customizations, hotkeys, default new documents, and more.

To begin the manual transfer process, follow these steps:

What You'll Transfer

By following this guide, you'll be able to migrate your entire CorelDRAW suite (including Corel PHOTO-PAINT, CAPTURE, Corel Font Manager, AfterShot) as well as all of your custom and default files. This includes everything from your vector graphics to your custom palettes and plugins.

Why Manual Migration?

Some users prefer manual migration for a few reasons. You might want more control over the transfer process or have specific settings that you don't want to lose during an automatic transfer. Additionally, if you're looking to move a large amount of data, manual migration can be a more efficient option.

Upgrading your CorelDRAW X8 suite to a new computer doesn't have to be daunting. With these simple steps, you'll be able to manually migrate your applications and files in no time. Remember to take your time and double-check each step to ensure a successful transfer. If you're unsure or prefer the automatic option, we also provide instructions for that.
