When importing a PDF with text "as text" - the PANOSE font matching could be a LOT cleverer.

When you wish to repurpose a PDF file with lots of fonts, it takes ages to substitute the missing fonts, although the fonts are often installed on your system.

    Check out CorelDRAW Graphics Suite 2024 (available to subscribers, and for one-time purchase) , or CorelDRAW Technical Suite 2024 - Remote fonts are introduced with this release.


    You can now access remote fonts, such as Google Fonts, directly in CorelDRAW and Corel PHOTO-PAINT (and Corel DESIGNER for Technical Suite users).


    By default, remote fonts are not enabled. To enable remote fonts:

    • Open the Font list box that appears on the property bar when the Text tool is activated.

    • Click the Font Options icon and select Font List Options.

    • On the Fonts tab of the Text section, click the checkbox Enable remote fonts.


    When a remote font is used, it will be automatically downloaded, and will no longer show a cloud icon in the Font list box. If you don’t want remote fonts to appear in the Font list box, click the Filter icon and then enable the Hide remote fonts checkbox.

    This feature saves you time when opening a document containing fonts that are not on your system, or fonts embedded in the file but available in an online library. Those missing fonts are automatically downloaded, eliminating any font-substitution steps.
