Per the reply, much stuff avail for file conversion. The problem with CDR is inclusion of both raster/vector/bit in single crazed file.
I have used Inkscape (which I recommend for general use) with reasonable results for image file format direct conversions, but have had some problems with very old stuff, where I had write a script that used a weird Python library.

Sometimes you have to be a little careful but applying a little common sense and a little research usually eliminates the risk. Sometimes (not always) you need to register an email address, but that sounds fair enough to me for a valuable free service. I have email addresses I use specifically for such purposes. Hope this helps, T BTW. If anyone's interested, I have a favourite free online .pdf to Microsoft Word .doc converter which produces excellent results even for documents containing extensive layout, formatting, tables and images. Feel free to email me for the link... I'm not associated or affiliated to it in any way, it's just a really good service. Would a forum thread for sharing personally recommended free Internet resources relevant to the Group be appropriate? T ----- Original Message ----- From: Dan Roman, N.C.E.

If yes, could you take an agency logo that was sent to me in Corel Draw native format and export it for me to an EPS or Illustrator friendly file format? Please reply directly off-list and I'll send you the .cdr file. The folks that I am working with at the agency are not much help. They have two versions, the .cdr and a jpeg that looks like it was scanned after being printed out! Thanks in advance. -- Dan Roman, N.C.E.
