    Hi

    Gimp on Ubuntu 8.10

    Is there a filter or a plugin or anything else to open or import or
    translate CorelDraw CDR files and open them in GIMP ?

    Thanks

    You could try Uniconvertor
    http://sk1project.org/modules.php?name=Products&product=uniconvertor

    <q> UniConvertor is a multiplatform universal vector graphics
    translator. It uses sK1 engine to convert one format to another<q>

    The .deb package that is on the site is for Ubuntu 7-ish so perhaps
    there is a package in the ubuntu repository. Maybe the ubuntu7 package
    will work, its not a complicated app and does not have much in the way
    of dependencies. I have it on a Mepis7 installation, its a
    command-line, used it to convert some old CDR images to AI.


    I tried it with Ubuntu 7.10. Works. But it doesn't seem to accept regexp
    as an argument ?
    Would not have thought so. AFAIK
    UniConvertor 1.1.2
    USAGE: uniconv [INPUT FILE] [OUTPUT FILE]
    Converts one vector graphics format to another using sK1 engine.
