Hi, just select the object and right click on the colour you want for the outline and the left click on a colour for the inner. You can then go to the outline menu and choose behind fill as I think it always look more balanced.I am using a typeface (Academy Engraved) and I want to make the outline in one colour and the inside of the typeface in another using corel draw 12. Any ideas please?
Gimme a shout if you need anymore advice on Corel as I have been using it for 9 years.
Sorry, I didn't realise what type of font it was. I have installed it myself and I see what your concern is.Hi
Thank you for that but I have tried it on the academy engraved font and it wouldnt work. It works brilliant on a solid font like Arial. Am I doing something wrong?
Right, take the word you want, duplicate it away from the original as you'll need it in a bit.
Convert the word to curves and then break the curves apart.
Any letters like 'e' or 'o' will fill in, so just stamp them out.
Now you have a 'filled'version of your word, now overlap the original and it will look like it's filled with a different colour outline.
