Case Study: Fluid Designs achieves faster, higher-quality designs and improved workflow with CorelDRAW

Building Success at a Graphic Design and Imprinting Business

Fluid Designs, a Jacksonville-based screen-printing and embroidery business founded by Richard Reilly, needed an intuitive, productive design solution to convert poor-quality customer bitmaps, handle many file formats, and speed up everyday artwork and proofing tasks. After evaluating several packages, Fluid Designs selected CorelDRAW and upgraded to CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X3 for its ease of use and comprehensive feature set.

CorelDRAW solved those challenges with tools like PowerTRACE for quick bitmap-to-vector conversion, the Mesh tool for photo-realistic vector art, and broad import/export and PDF output for reliable client proofs. The result was faster turnaround, reduced rework and file-compatibility issues, and a clear improvement in daily productivity—benefits Richard attributes directly to CorelDRAW.
