5.0 out of 5 stars Great Book for Introduction to Corel Draw, December 23, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Teach Yourself CorelDRAW 8 in 24 Hours (Paperback)
Just finished this book and I would have been lost in Corel draw without it, I am a beginner to Corel products and needed a good book as an introduction. At the end of each chapter I really felt like I had good knowledge of each tool we worked with. The author is honest in admitting the program cant be covered completely in 24 hours but you can get really familiar with the program by using this book. Plus the price is excellent, compared to some of the other corel books its a great buy. I would recommend this book to anyone needing an introduction to Corel Draw 8

5.0 out of 5 stars YES! You can learn how to use CorelDRAW in 24 hours!, March 25, 2000

This review is from: Teach Yourself CorelDRAW 8 in 24 Hours (Paperback)
What an excellent choice to make if you want to learn a graphic software in a short period of time! I am an avid reader of self teaching books, since we have not many classes on the computer graphics subject here in Alaska. This one is one of the best ones ever. If you follow the chapters one by one, practicing one hour a day, after 24 days you are quite the capable user of CorelDRAW, which - by the way - is a lot of fun. The way David Karlins describes the different tools and how to use them makes it very easy even for the novice to follow. I also loved the tips and notes and sense of humor. It is also an excellent update for seasoned CorelDRAW users. I highly recommend it!

5.0 out of 5 stars If you get CorelDRAW 8 get this book., August 23, 1998
By

(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Teach Yourself CorelDRAW 8 in 24 Hours (Paperback)
If you want to learn CorelDRAW 8 quickly, you need this book. There are 24 chapters and, presumably, each chapter can be completed in one hour. How much can be learned in one hour with a book like this? Plenty. The book is easy to read, the illustrations are very good, and the workshops are excellent. Each chapter has a self test at the end which reinforces what you've learned in that chapter. By the time I reached chapter 19 "From CorelDRAW to the World Wide Web" I felt comfortable creating a Web page using CorelDRAW, and was quite pleased with the results. The next three chapters introduce Photo-Paint 8 and the final two chapters provide an introduction to Corel Dream 3D. The Photopaint and Dream 3D chapters will get you started with those packages. Overall, I enjoyed the book and gained a good understanding of CorelDRAW 8 in the process. The book should be completed in one hour (or greater) segments, a chapter at a time, in order to get the full benefit of the workshops. The book is reasonably priced and, in my opinion, an excellent buy.
