convert to curves question

[high impact]

I have corel 10 but have never used it and a customer with a rush job just sent me a corel file. I do not have the font so how do I convert to curves so I can open and print from Flexi?

THANKS:U Rock:

The customer will have to do the conversion and resend the file.

You can't - he needs to convert to curves at his end. You can't do it without the fonts.

I believe that if you have the file on your computer but don't have the font for it then you won't accomplish what you are trying to do by converting to curves (if you even can convert it). The supplier of the file must convert the font to curves before sending it to you then you can open it even without the proper font installed on your computer.

or you can ask him to send the fonts used via email and installed it to your font folder. Well that if he's 50 miles away from you.

Yeah, you'd have to have them do it. That's unless they could get you the fonts.
