stylizing text is easier with Artistic Text, Paragraph Text gives provides
automatic wrapping to new lines, unlimited text capacity, columns and
the ability to link text areas together. Choose Text Tool. Click and
drag to create a text area. Type your text in this area. (See Paragraph

to use the Property Bar when you are working with text for efficient
editing and stylizing. Note that the sample above has been split into

Text Menu
Choose Text from the Main Menu. Most editing tools can be accessed though
this menu.

Format Text
Choose Text, Format Text to open the Format Text window. This is a one-stop
place for nearly every text function in CorelDraw. When you have several
formatting tasks to perform on the same text, this option is often the
most efficient method.
