Calendar Wizard 4.1 for CorelDRAW
 Oberon
Calendar Wizard 4.1 is a CorelDRAW add-on to
create professional quality calendar layouts of various styles and
levels of complexity. Designed with high quality output in mind,
Calendar Wizard 4.1 offers unparallel flexibility and power to the
user.
The exceptional features of Calendar Wizard
coupled with excellent tools of CorelDRAW allows you to create the best
looking calendar designs in a short amount of time.
With over 30 different layout types supported
and over 500 parameters such as colors, fonts, etc. describing
each layout, you can create truly personalized calendars. Top this off
with the ability to create calendars in different languages, add public
holidays, local events or personal special dates, indicate lunar phases
and other events and you end up with the right tool to handle the most
demanding projects.
Features such as live previews right in Calendar
Wizard's dialogs eliminate guesswork and allow you to concentrate on the
design, not the tool itself.
Once a calendar is generated, use standard CorelDRAW
tools and features to enhance the design with clipart images, photos,
artistic effects and then print or export the design in the format
required for final output.
 A
number of predefined calendar designs is readily available from
the presets list of the main dialog which is a good starting
point for your base design if you don't want to start tweaking
standard styles from scratch.
It could be as little as 10 seconds
from the time you start CorelDRAW till you have a calendar
design created for you ready to be printed. |
The current version of Calendar Wizard can be used
together with CorelDRAW 10, 11 and 12 and requires
Visual Basic for Applications (VBA).
