Michael,
Thank you for your further comments. I think you have missed the point of
my original message - unless I didn't make it clear.

We, no doubt as most people are, very familiar with "converting to curves"
and the difference between the "onscreen" rendering and "printout" - very
basic stuff. We currently have full colour digital laser print facility
and am very familiar with print and text output.

The original question was the conversion by Corel 8 (PC) to an Adobe
Illustrator (AI) file and the way in which it deals with text and vector
lines when converted to curves in the "save as....."or export..... ".ai"
process.

Some client preferred printing houses would like to receive files in the
Adobe Illustrator format and do not have Corel.
When the printing house does not have the specified font - "convert to
curves" makes life easy for us all.

But Corel 8 V .433 does not convert text in a fit state when it processes an
Adobe Illustrator ".ai" file - period!

Please try it for yourself.

Regards............Tom

Did you print those awful texts? Try printing them to a laser printer, and
tell me if still they are awful. What you are looking in your monitor may
be, it is not what you will see when printed.
