Honestly it was the only book I could find at the time, but it is fine! It covers anything I will ever do, which is fairly complex at times. It covers everything from making a brochure to making a bowling shirt! Covers basics to complex, even has a few color photos which are kind of "basic" but still unusual in a thick computer

excellent resource book. Good to have at hand later. I am using to learn program by referring to book's visuals of the tutorials that are on the DVD that comes with program or accessible online. I finally just jumped into the tutorials and book and found my learning curve quickly closing. My interest is to learn to draw vector art by tracing and filling over photos. Book has been referred to many times. I recommend it highly.Source URL: https://mangutanblonyo.blogspot.com/2011/03/coreldraw-x5-official-guide.html
