Adding and Selecting Text in CorelDRAW
There are two types of text you can add to designs— artistic text and paragraph text. Artistic text can be used to add short lines of text to which you can apply a wide range of effects, such as drop shadows. Paragraph text can be used for larger bodies of text that have greater formatting requirements.

To add paragraph text, click the Text tool, drag in the drawing window to size the paragraph text frame, and type.
To select an entire text object, click the text by using the Pick tool insert
