NEW: CDR (CorelDraw) import via UniConvertor

Inkscape can use UniConvertor (http://www.sk1project.org/modules.php?name=Products&product=uniconvertor) if it's installed on your system to import documents in CDR format (CorelDraw). This feature is Unix-only at this time (since UniConvertor is Unix-only) and requires that you have Python and UniConvertor installed. As of UniConvertor 1.0rc2, only versions from 7 to X3 of the CDR format are supported, and text objects are not converted.

thanks for the big news so ..we can start the revolution now ? ;)
ok, I'll check this immediate. Can we hope in the near future for text objects OR we have to stay for Inkscape text module to be updated (to be compatible [ text with paths, enveloped text, etc ]) ?

That's really a question for UniConvertor developers

Inkscape text is an implementation of SVG. If something is missing (though I don't understand what is "text with paths", if it's text on path then we have it), it needs to be added in SVG first.

I mean text imported from Corel Draw [ on idea that they use other methods to put text on paths -> that need to be translated in the Inkscape way of ...text on path ] so the "text with paths" mean imported text along paths from Corel on Inkscape.
Sorry, I don't put my question in a correct way.
