Okay, now my next question is for the format of the XML. Is there a reference as to what the various elements and attributes mean?
That is, what does the x,y of ShapeSetup imply, or of CurveTo? So far I'm guessing the units are twips, but either I'm totally confused on these elements or Corel is truly writing arbitrary bounds information (regardless of how I add the various CurveTo/LineTo I don't get anything near what the bounds is written as).
