Digital BW, The Print

Will the old Coreldraw's port of Photopaint 9 still run on the
new Linux distributions ?

Isn't that an acceptable image editor that will allow QTR +
Gimp-print as its output driver without the Gimp-print plug-in
interfering ?

It is not at Photoshop level and probably even not at GIMP level
in 8 bits/RGB but there are some nice features that the GIMP
doesn't have including 16 bit, CMYK etc. As I understand it, it
isn't a full port but uses components of Wine for some emulation
so it will not be fast. Colour management will not be supported I
guess as that relied on the Microsoft colour engine. That's not a
big loss as that is even flaky on Windows.

There are some sites where it can be downloaded. I think Corel
did make it free as it was distributed on magazine CD-ROM's as
well.
