Illustrator-Corel Draw 9 conflicts?

by cemetery mike . Updated 21 years, 3 months ago

I recently made the switch from Corel Draw to Adobe’s Creative Suite 2. In the process, a font problem has arisen that I cannot solve, no matter what I try, concerning some Adobe fonts that have changed their name ever-so-slightly (thereby forcing an individual “font replace” command upon each and every use, with some still failing to appear as desired.

My question is this . . .

Has anyone heard of any conflict issues with installing both Corel Draw AND Adobe Creative Suite 2 (specifically Illustrator) on the same system? One of our computer service personnel seems to think there is – although this was just an opinion of his, with no facts to base it upon. There are a number of Corel Draw 9 files that aren’t coming into Illustrator as needed (or designed) and – rather than have the headache of tweaking each on individually upon each first-time use – I would rather open them up in Corel, save them as .ai files and see if that does the trick. Failing that, I will export each one as a high-res PDF and go from there. Any and all help appreciated.
