Since Xara will only be distributed on the Web, Corel has chosen not to include accessory files, such as fills, fonts and clip art, in order to keep the application's file size small and reduce download time. These extras, however, are available on the Xara Web site. Having to connect to the Web site in order to access and retrieve images and fonts is a little annoying, especially if you have a slow connection. Once placed on the page, the objects are fully editable, except for the bitmapped-based fills. If you know the URL for a specific graphic on the Web, you can import it directly into Xara.
Users can drag and drop line widths and styles onto any line.
Below, we've created a Web bar using a tutorial on Xara's Web site. It consists of two lines, widths of 8 points and .25 point, and an 11-step blend. Selected text can easily be changed by dragging and dropping available fonts onto it. Selecting an individual letter lets your choice affect only that item. Text can be resized easily by dragging the object's bounding box.
