A large share of the sign and engraving trade still drives machines straight out of CorelDRAW. This download bundles the design as a clean DXF plus an SVG and a plain-text import note, which CorelDRAW opens natively at the correct scale.

Import with 'Fit to page' disabled, keep the original units, and set the hairline outline width to 0.001 mm before sending the job to the driver.

Delivery note. Delivered as an exchange bundle (.zip) containing DXF + SVG for CorelDRAW.

Importing without surprises

  1. 1Import at 1:1 with millimetre units. If your software asks for a DPI, use 25.4 so one unit equals one millimetre.
  2. 2Keep the CUT and SCORE layers separate and assign them different operations — through-cut and engrave.
  3. 3Apply your own kerf compensation and lead-ins in CAM. Nothing is baked into the drawing, so the same file works on a laser, a router and a plasma table.

CDR — common questions

01What exactly do I get in the CDR download?

For the CorelDRAW shops and Trotec workflows. A large share of the sign and engraving trade still drives machines straight out of CorelDRAW. This download bundles the design as a clean DXF plus an SVG and a plain-text import note, which CorelDRAW opens natively at the correct scale. Delivered as an exchange bundle (.zip) containing DXF + SVG for CorelDRAW.

02Which software opens these CDR files?

Tested with CorelDRAW, Trotec JobControl, Epilog Job Manager and more. Import with 'Fit to page' disabled, keep the original units, and set the hairline outline width to 0.001 mm before sending the job to the driver.

03Why does my import come in at the wrong size?

Almost always a unit mismatch. Our files are millimetres with a 1:1 user space; if your importer assumes 72 or 96 dpi it will scale the artwork. Set the import DPI to 25.4, or use the DXF variant which carries explicit unit metadata.

04Are all 3 designs available as CDR?

Every design on this page ships a CDR file. Designs are only listed here when the format has been generated and verified from the master geometry, so the count reflects real, downloadable files.
