How to convert ttf to cdr file

Old versions of CorelDRAW were able to import and edit TTF fonts and it also allowed users export to AI. Such ttf to cdr conversion was often used to edit fonts or add new glyphs (language specific characters) to fonts. Unfortunately, the newest versions of CorelDRAW no longer support this function.

Understanding TTF and CDR file formats

TTF (TrueType Font) is a font file format developed by Apple and Microsoft. It is widely used for both Windows and macOS operating systems. TTF files contain font data that can be used to display text in different styles and sizes.

CDR is a file format used by CorelDRAW, a popular vector graphics editor. CDR files store vector images and are used for creating illustrations, logos, and other graphic designs. Unlike TTF, CDR is not a font file but a graphic file format.

Converting TTF to CDR

Converting a TTF file to a CDR file involves transforming font data into a vector graphic format. This process is useful when you want to use specific font characters as part of a graphic design in CorelDRAW.

Best software for TTF to CDR conversion

The best software for converting TTF to CDR is CorelDRAW itself. CorelDRAW allows you to import TTF files and convert them into vector graphics. Here’s how you can do it:

  • Open CorelDRAW.
  • Go to FileImport and select the TTF file you want to convert.
  • Once the font is imported, use the text tool to type the characters you need.
  • Select the text and go to ArrangeConvert to Curves to transform the text into vector shapes.
  • Save the file as a CDR by going to FileSave As and choosing the CDR format.

By following these steps, you can effectively convert TTF font characters into a CDR file for use in your graphic designs.
