Actually I export them as HPGL, which is basically a text file with all the
lines decribed in it. It is the same language that controls most plotters. I
import it 1 to 1, and it makes itself the right size. CorelDRAW is primarily
used for editing vector graphics, although it can work with raster images
(bitmaps)
