Is there a Kubuntu equivalent for Corel Draw 7 Select Edition?

2008-08-07 Thread Peter Williams
Hi All,

I have a copy of a fairly old Corel Draw 7 Select Edition and I
installed it today. Unfortunately, even tho' it does run with WINE --
it is not a very happy program. I think that its probably TOO OLD!!!
E.g. It locks up several times.

As the subject of this email suggests, I'm looking for a Linux Kubuntu
equivalent of it. In particular, I really used to love the Corel Trace
program [ it converts raster images into vector drawings... very
clever!!! ]

I'd really appreciate any suggestions on Kubuntu software I should try. *SMILE*

Inkscape does vector drawing and seemingly magic vector tracing with
even newer and better techniques!

Inkscape is my preferred application, but in the name of choice and 
diversity there is also Karbon:

However I don't know if it has the trace features of Inkscape (via potrace).
