Designing a Logo in Corel Draw

1. Choose "File" and select "New." This will create a new blank document. On the "Properties" bar type the size you want your logo to be. A good size to start with is 5 inches wide by 5 inches tall.
   
   
2. Go to the "Effects" menu and select "Artistic Media." This will present you with numerous artistic shapes and designs. You can select predefined artistic strokes to add to your logo to create an image for your logo. You can also use the drawing tools to hand draw any image you might like to include on your logo.
   
   
3. Insert graphics if you don't want to draw your own.
   
   
4. Draw a text box and write the text of your logo. You can apply colors and special effects to the text to achieve the look you're after. You can use drop caps and shape your text. You can also apply various textures to the text. Just about any effect you can use on a graphic can be applied to text. Don't be afraid to experiment until you achieve the look you're after. You can always use the "Undo" command if you don't like something.
   
   
5. Save your logo when you finish. Choose "File" and "Export" to save your logo as a high-quality graphic file of your choice.
