What happens when you convert CDR to SVG?

Local document import

Supported pages, paths, text, gradients and bitmap resources are imported locally. Document-specific version, font and unsupported-effect diagnostics describe preservation limits. Native Corel layers and print separations are not inferred from drawing groups or RGB appearance.

Retained vector representation

SVG preserves imported paths, groups, semantic text, gradients and embedded bitmap fragments. It does not wrap a page-sized PNG. Live text requires available fonts.

Is CDR → SVG right for you?

Good choice when

  • SVG fits your delivery use: Diagrams & scalable symbols.
  • You review the document warnings before export.
  • You need scalable supported geometry.
  • You can validate the destination’s sample precision and colour interpretation.

Probably not when

  • You require a complete CorelDRAW replacement.
  • You need original editable Corel object semantics.
  • You require identical samples without a defined colour and precision policy.

CDR to SVG conversion details

Local document import
Supported pages, paths, text, gradients and bitmap resources are imported locally. Document-specific version, font and unsupported-effect diagnostics describe preservation limits. Native Corel layers and print separations are not inferred from drawing groups or RGB appearance.
Retained vector representation
SVG preserves imported paths, groups, semantic text, gradients and embedded bitmap fragments. It does not wrap a page-sized PNG. Live text requires available fonts.
Sample precision & colour
Imported vector geometry remains vector on supported SVG/vector-PDF paths. Bitmap fragments retain their decoded precision. Page rasterization produces SDR display pixels; source ICC/CMYK/spot separations are not retained.
Compression
CDR: Not a pixel codec → SVG: Not a pixel codec CDR: CDR remains source only. No conversion writes a CDR document. SVG: SVG describes geometry rather than using a lossy/lossless pixel codec. XML can be compressed for transport, but rasterization is a separate operation that fixes resolution and can discard editability.
Transparency
CDR: Yes → SVG: Yes
Animation
CDR: No → SVG: Yes
Vector graphics
SVG: Paths, shapes & text
Dimensions
Conversion keeps the decoded image dimensions unless you edit or resize it. Orientation is applied by supported decoders. ICO fits the image into one selected square size; PDF page layout and rendering DPI are configurable. Device, memory and codec limits still apply.
Metadata
The imported vector SVG retains supported page content. Source document metadata and profiles remain in the local document; no print separations are attached to this display SVG.

Common questions

Which source information survives?

Supported pages, paths, text, gradients and bitmap resources are imported locally. Document-specific version, font and unsupported-effect diagnostics describe preservation limits. Native Corel layers and print separations are not inferred from drawing groups or RGB appearance.

Does SVG contain actual vectors?

SVG preserves imported paths, groups, semantic text, gradients and embedded bitmap fragments. It does not wrap a page-sized PNG. Live text requires available fonts.

Are bit depth and colour values guaranteed to match?

Imported vector geometry remains vector on supported SVG/vector-PDF paths. Bitmap fragments retain their decoded precision. Page rasterization produces SDR display pixels; source ICC/CMYK/spot separations are not retained.

Will metadata and colour profiles be retained?

The imported vector SVG retains supported page content. Source document metadata and profiles remain in the local document; no print separations are attached to this display SVG. Imported vector geometry remains vector on supported SVG/vector-PDF paths. Bitmap fragments retain their decoded precision. Page rasterization produces SDR display pixels; source ICC/CMYK/spot separations are not retained.
