Acquiring applications, plug-ins, and extensions

You can purchase apps, plug-ins, and extensions as well as download free creative tools from within CorelDRAW. The available selection is updated with new offerings as they become available.

Applications, plug-ins, and upgrade options

Choose from a selection of applications and plug-ins to complement your creative tool set or purchase the Upgrade Program to make sure you are always using the latest version of the suite. For example, Corel Website Creator can help you design and manage websites, and AfterShot Pro provides professional RAW photo-editing tools. Corel ParticleShop, a powerful brush plug-in, lets you add unique bitmap effects and brushstrokes to your projects.

Both applications and plug-ins require installation.

Extensions

Extensions extend the capabilities of CorelDRAW and Corel PHOTO-PAINT, allowing you to complete complex tasks with ease. They may add a new tool to the application toolbox or a new UI (user interface) element such as a menu, toolbar, docker, or dialog box. Extensions available through the Get More docker and the Get More dialog box include the Calendar Wizard, File Converter, Prep and Stretch, and Border and Grommet.

Extensions do not require installation and can be deleted through the Get More docker.

Restore purchases

After you purchase creative tools, check marks appear beside their names. If you reinstall the CorelDRAW Graphics Suite or install the suite on another computer, you can restore your purchases. This will ensure that the Get More docker shows the items that you have already purchased so that you can download them and reinstall them.
