Thanks
Harish
Both CorelDRAW Graphics Suite and Corel DESIGNER Technical Suite X4 include the API documentation with the application installation.
For file conversion (such as DSF (Micrografx Designer) to JPG) there is a conversion utility in the packages as Sample1.gms macro file.
In the application go to Tools > Macros > Run Macro... and watch out for the "FileConverter". By running "Converter.Start" you will get to a batch conversion utility that converts literally every supported file format to a large number of output formats:
The sample macro can be modified/ enhanced using the (VBA) Macro Editor so you could also use it as starting point for an advanced automated conversion utility.
In Corel DESIGNER X4 you can open (and convert) DSF files from Micrografx Designer 6 - 9. It also supports the older files from Designer 4.1 (ds4) and Designer 3.1 (drw).
One additional comment: If you (batch) convert DSF files to the current Corel DESIGNER (X4) DES file format you can use the Corel DESIGNER Shell Extension (part of the Corel DESIGNER Technical Suite X4 installation) to preview the DES files in Windows Explorer with high quality.
Thank you very much for the reply..
will try this
