I used 's method of reinstalling Nik3 to make the two older plugins available to CDraw, but with some caveats to get it to work with CorelDRAW, and for the Nik4 versions of Silver Efex and Viveza to work in PL as well. With CorelDRAW, the two plugins simply do not open. So the two plugins do open with C1, but without a save button. A work around seems to hint towards that the Silver Efex and Viveza plugin checks to see if C1 is running and removes the save back option. The issue IS with DxO and the new plugins, V3 worked with Capture One etc no problems at all.

If NIK 4 and beyond are no longer compatible with Corel products, I guess I will be forever stuck on NIK version 3. Send back to CorelDRAW to use the outstanding print engine it has, or to save for the web. Open a NIK plugin for effects or further correction Export to CorelDRAW Photo-Paint for further editing

Process RAW files using custom presets in DxO I have processed all of my RAW files, starting with Optics Pro 4 and now with Photolab 4, and I have a workflow that works great for me: Vivezo and Silver Efex no longer work with that app either. Incidentally, because it is lightweight and capable, I have PaintShop Pro 2021 installed on my small Windows tablet for minor on-the-spot editing. I used it long enough to become fairly proficient, then realized that CorelDRAW is easier to use and can actually do more than those Adobe apps for less money. I wanted to see what all of the hype was about. So you see, I’m not about to switch to another app for photo processing, it is simply out of the question.Ī couple of years ago, I subscribed to PhotoShop, Lightroom, and had to add Illustrator as it’s a totally different app with Adobe. I use the Nik collection extensively in that app. CorelDRAW is a $700 set of professional programs. I’m also grandfathered into the now-discontinued (for new users) Corel upgrade program for $79 a year. I use the raster app in the suite, Photo-Paint, for photo editing and painting. I use the vector app in that suite for graphic art such as logos, stickers, and signs (it makes me money). The thing is, I am a decades-long user of the CorelDRAW graphics suite.
