Features
Designed specifically to streamline the technical illustration workflow, Corel DESIGNER Technical Suite 12 delivers:
- Precision design tools
- Broad file compatibility that facilitates collaboration
- The ability to re-purpose old data and drawings
New! Projected Drawing Modes
The new drawing profiles dramatically increase productivity by letting technical illustrators actively draw on the projected plane, which eliminates the need to draw the object first and then project it in a second step. By projecting objects onto drawing planes, you can create the illusion of a 3D graphic.
Enhanced! Gravity Snapping
Snap the pointer to various points in objects to easily to create and position objects accurately.
Enhanced! Dynamic Guides
Dynamic Guides are temporary guidelines you can pull from the following snap points in objects: center, node, quadrant and text baseline. Helping to align, draw and move objects in precise relation to other objects, Dynamic Guides are fully customizable and give technical illustrators unprecedented speed and precision.
New! B-Spline Tool
Draw and edit B-splines by creating smooth, continuous curved lines that you form by setting control points to shape the curve without breaking it into segments.
New! Dimension Lines
Corel DESIGNER Technical Suite 12 introduces 3 new types of dimension lines: segment, radial and diameter.
New! Enhanced Line Styles
Enhanced line styles are especially useful for illustrating stitch patterns and drawing parallel lines.
New! Hatch Fills
Easily differentiate between materials and coinciding objects with Hatch fills. These fills are vector-based and projectable so you can use them with the new Projected Drawing mode. Use any of the pre-defined Hatch fills or create your own custom fills.
New! Fillet/Chamfer/Scallop
Use scallops, fillets and chamfers to create perfectly shaped corners every time.
Enhanced! Transformations Docker
You can now project and un-project objects with precision. Plus, take advantage of exact coordinates to project, move, rotate, flip and skew objects.
Enhanced! Eyedropper Tool
Quickly copy color, object properties, effects and transformations from one object to another to save time when creating designs.
New! Workspace Selector
Choose from pre-configured workspaces that resemble the look and feel of Adobe® Illustrator®, Micrografx Designer® 9 and Microsoft® Visio®. You can also create, save and share your own custom workspaces. For example, create workspaces that are specific to the review and design processes.
New! Dynamic Language Switching
Install multiple language packs to enable use of the application in more than one language. This is ideal for bilingual environments.
Enhanced! Unicode Support
Exchange files effortlessly by ensuring that text is displayed correctly, regardless of the language or operating system in which the file was created.
New! Double-byte Formatting
Quickly apply Asian fonts to Asian and Latin text simply by using the Property Bar.
New! Insert Formatting Codes Docker

Manage a complex project by assigning data to its objects.
New! Computer Graphics Metafile (CGM) Support
