You can open most bitmaps in Corel PHOTO-PAINT. Each image you open appears in its own image window.
You can also import images. Importing allows you to add a new image to the active image window. For more information, see Importing files.
You can use the clipart and photos that are included on the Corel DVD. You can search for images by different criteria, such as filename, title, subject, author, keyword, comment, and other properties attached to the file. For more information about searching for files, see the Windows Help. You can also browse and search for content by using the Get More docker. For more information, see Finding content with the Get More docker.
Opening earlier versions of multilingual files
You can open or import an image from version 11 or earlier of Corel PHOTO-PAINT that contains text in a language different from the language of your operating system. To do this, you can use code page settings to ensure that object names and notes saved with the image are displayed correctly in the Object manager docker. To ensure that text is correctly displayed in the image window, you need to use encoding settings. For more information, see Modifying encoding settings to display text correctly.
