Searching for templates

CorelDRAW provides an easy way of finding templates.

Searching

You can search by the name, category, or reference information associated with a template. For example, if you type "contemporary" in the text field, the application automatically filters out all files that do not match, and you see only the files that have the word "contemporary" in the template name, category, or designer notes attached to the file.

By default, the application searches all locations that Instant Search (on Windows 7 and Windows 8) is configured to index. You can also browse for templates in other locations, which Instant Search is not configured to index. For more information about configuring Instant Search on Windows 7 and Windows 8, see the Windows Help.

You can cancel a search at any time.

Filtering search results

You can narrow the search results by using different criteria, such as document type (for example, brochure, flyer, newsletter, or postcard) and industry (for example, hospitality or retail). You can choose to view only templates that you have created or all templates (the templates included with CorelDRAW and provided by third-party designers, as well as templates that you have created).

Viewing templates and template information

You can increase the size of thumbnails to recognize a particular template easier and faster, and you can decrease thumbnail size to view more search results at a glance.When you select a template in the viewing area, additional information is displayed about the template’s category, style, pagination, and fold options, as well as any designer notes related to its intended use.

Custom templates that do not contain any category information are displayed under My templates.

If the CorelDRAW shell integration components are not installed (that is, if you have disabled the Windows Shell Extension option under Utilities in the Setup wizard during a custom installation), you can search for templates only by filename, not by name, keywords, or other reference information.

You can also start a search by entering a search term in the Search box and clicking the Start search button .
