I've used thousands of EPS files from CorelDraw in FM with very few
problems other than user error when constructing the drawings. EPS is
the way to go - avoid the native format filters since FM then has to
translate it into internal framevector format and then redo that for
output as postscript. With EPS it just gets passed through and FM does
nothing to it.

Dana,

I'd avoid WMF from CorelDraw as you lose quite a bit (curves are
converted to small straight line segments; font handling is wacky;
colours, including spot, are converted to RGB; etc.).

Draw is mainly for vector work, so why would you need TIFs from it in
FM?
