Drop Shadows in Corel Draw
First in Corel- Select the Text with the pick tool then hit the (+) key
and it duplicates the selection, then as you have 2 copies on top of
each other color that selection a dif color and use shift+page down and
that places it below the original or layered underneath. then use the
arrow keys to adjust it to the proper exposure.then select your original
with the pick tool hold the shift key down and select the copied text
then in the arrange dropdown select trim, you now have just the original
text and the shadow.. if you plan to export it to a cutter move the
shadow to a seperate location, while you have it in Corel because it is
still one text group, export it and cut. if you are printing then use
the suggestion as appears in the Tips & Trick "Drop Shadows in Corel Draw ".
