Creating a Distressed Look in CorelDRAW

Want to add a funky, distressed look to your text? This tutorial will show you how easy it is with CorelDRAW. You’ll see how to import a bitmap image with a distressed texture you want to use, how to adjust the bitmap mode and tone curve of your texture and how to convert this to a 1 bit black and white image. Then it’s simply a matter of removing the fill and changing the color to blend the distressed texture into the background, so it can only be seen on the text.

Its not a good solution. What if I have 1000s of shirts with different color background? I have to select and apply color one by one

The eye dropper part does not work for me. Keep playing it over and over. I don't have the outline docked so went to outline color but my dropper won't move. Customer wants his lettering distrested
and I can't do it.

[@missm.205]

I can't do it either, so frustrating

[@dave3jags]

why when i right light on the distressed picture my whole picture become the colour i selected , im stuck there, please help

[@ambosmommy]

I want to have this where the texture actually removes the text color so that the entire thing is a vector. With UV print on dark colors you must make a white base. I would need to duplicate the image (font) so that it essentially prints twice, once in white and then the CMYK. How can I do this quickly and easily?

[@jarredburt]

Yeah and why happens when you print the shirt. Doesn’t the filter print on the shirt then?

[@BTHDreamer]

how do you knockout the entire color of the texture. I don't want to try and match the color of the shirt. I just want it removed.

i am using corel 21. i cannot find the x that you refer to at about 2:13. i'm sure its something easy. can you please help me?

[@TheKatalystical]

I want my background to be transparent. Is there a way to do this without just matching the t-shirt color, but making that part transparent instead?

[@wiseguy138]

how about matching the back ground of your page like for example white

[@leobaldoneto]

@@wiseguy138 maybe you can simplify both objects.

[@Bossfx888]

How can i make the image distressed look but not with overlay effect

[@joseolmedo7484]

What if color doesn’t match real life color

[@zakigattig516]

I was able to get to the last step in creating a distressed look on a practice page. I looked for the outline pen on the status page. Nothing.I know that I'm missing something quite simple, but I don't know what. Please respond. Thank you.

[@CorelDiscoveryCenter]

When we change the outline, this is done by right clicking on a color in the color palette.

[@mikeprell2747]

Got it. As a background, I've been using actual weathered barn board as a base with text over it. I've used as close a matching color from the palette as I could find. Very close. Thanks for your assistance.
