HTML

HTML files are plain-text (also known as ASCII) files that can be created using any text editor, including SimpleText and TextEdit. HTML files are intended for display on a Web browser.

You can import HTML files to edit text and add Web objects, bookmarks, and hyperlinks. You can also publish files to the Web. For more information about preparing files and objects for Web publishing and uploading to the Web, see “Publishing to the Web.”

Importing an HTML file
 
The HTML import filter extracts editable information from a Web document and brings objects into CorelDRAW in a manner similar to the original layout.
 
Imported HTML files that exceed the boundaries of the drawing page continue down the workspace without a page break.


Exporting an HTML file
 
All objects that are not within the boundaries of the drawing page are ignored on export.
 
Overlapping HTML text frames cause difficulties during export. If this occurs, try exporting the file to the GIF or JPEG file format.
