I used the trial version for a couple weeks and just purchased the upgrade at the beginning of the month. There is definitely a significant difference in the quality of the trace between 12 and X3. I also really like the fact that you can trace right from Draw rather than having to open a separate program, save your results and then bring it into Draw. I also belong to a Corel Drawings group on Yahoo and many of those people have also commented on the improved trace functionality in X3.

Does anyone have experience with this? Does the power trace function work as advertised? 2. Are there any other good reasons for upgrading? Thanks. David Sklar Ballyhoo!
