We output AI — the vector format CorelDRAW imports as fully editable curves.

3

Open in CorelDRAW, save as CDR

File ▸ Open the .ai in CorelDRAW, then File ▸ Save As and pick CDR.

Why this gets you a CDR

Editable curves, not a picture

CorelDRAW imports the .ai as real vector objects you can reshape, recolour and scale — then Save As gives you a native .cdr.

No CorelDRAW licence needed to convert

The conversion runs here, free and without an account. You only need CorelDRAW for the final Save As.

Opens in Illustrator and Inkscape too

AI is the common language of vector editors, so the same file works if you switch tools.

MAP to CDR, the honest way

CDR is CorelDRAW's own closed format — only CorelDRAW writes a native one. What you actually need is artwork CorelDRAW can open and edit. By default that is AI: our converter turns your MAP into an .ai file, CorelDRAW imports it as editable curves, and File ▸ Save As ▸ CDR gives you the .cdr. If you'd rather skip that step, choose CDR: you get a .cdr written in Corel's CMX exchange format, which CorelDRAW opens directly.

What you get from a MAP

A MAP is pixels, so we trace it into vector outlines. That works beautifully for logos, icons and line art — the result is a single-colour silhouette, not a full-colour copy of a photo.

Other formats CorelDRAW imports

If you would rather not go through AI, MAP also converts to SVG, PDF or EPS — all of them import into CorelDRAW.

Frequently asked questions

Yes, two ways. The default gives you an AI file: open it in CorelDRAW, then Save As ▸ CDR. Or pick CDR and download a .cdr that CorelDRAW opens directly — it's written in Corel's CMX exchange format rather than CorelDRAW's own native CDR, so save it once from CorelDRAW if you need a native file.

AI is the safer choice: it also opens in Illustrator and Inkscape. Pick CDR when you only use CorelDRAW and want a file that opens without an extra step.

Yes — the .ai imports as curves you can select, reshape and recolour, not as a locked picture.

A traced MAP comes out as a single-colour vector silhouette. For photos or multi-colour logos, convert to SVG, PDF or EPS instead, or trace each colour by hand in CorelDRAW.

Yes — free, no sign-up and no watermark. Files are processed securely and deleted immediately after conversion.

A renamed file is not a CDR — CorelDRAW would refuse to open it. Both options here produce real vector data instead.
