SUMMARY
The CorelDraw! (.cdr) filter that ships with Microsoft Publisher can actually import other types of CorelDraw! files besides those with a .cdr extension. It also imports Pattern (.pat) and Corel Template (.cdt) files. These file types do not, however, show up in the Insert Picture dialog box.

NOTE: This filter does not import Corel MetaFile Exchange (.cmx) files.



To Import a .pat or .cdt File into Publisher
To Import a .pat or .cdt File into Publisher, follow these steps:  On the Insert menu, click Picture File. Click CorelDraw picture in the Files of Type list. Type one of the following in the File Name box:

*.pat

-or-


 * .cdt

 Select the folder that contains the picture you want to import. Click the name of the picture, and then click OK.

NOTE: When importing the pat and cdt file formats, previews will not be available.
