Preview of the CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X5 packaging

We are a few days away from starting shipping the box to everyone who has pre-ordered it and I wanted to take a few minutes to actually show you the changes that we are doing with version X5 when it comes to the packaging and the printed documentation. The whole team who worked on the documentation / packaging wanted to make this a very useful and inspiring tool for you, while at the same time making sure that we minimize the ecological footprint. As you can see from the video below, we have reduced to the maximum the number of components, the size has been slightly reduced compared to the previous boxes (a lot more eco-friendly when it comes to shipping these) and we are also using paper from sustainable sources wherever possible.

For those who want to get a preview of the content itself printed in the book, you can look at the Guidebook in PDF format available from the Help menu in CorelDRAW and Corel PHOTO-PAINT (for some language, we were not able to get the whole PDF printed, this is the example of the English box). But enough typing, here is a little video (yes, I have fun creating overlays with VideoStudio):

And here is the same video on YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a3J1ma4khf8
