Setting up CorelDRAW 10 onwards

Before you start this section you will need to download the Xpres Subli-Print colour profile from the Xpres website.

The address is www.xpres.co.uk/technical.php You can also find the profile on the Subli-Print CD supplied with the bulk feed system. This disk can also be sent out upon request.

Close CorelDRAW. When you have downloaded the 'Subli_Print_D88_V1.icm' colour profile, right click on it and choose 'Install Profile' from the top of the menu. Note: The profile will install automatically and will not give any feedback. Also on some systems you will not be able to see the 'Install Profile' option. If this is the case change the .ICM extension to .ICC then re-try.

Start CorelDRAW and click on Window > Colour Palettes. Tick the 'Default RGB palette'. Repeat the process then un-tick 'Default CMYK palette'. Now click on Tools > Colour Management. You will now see the colour management dialogue box appear as in diagram 1 below.
