此外，CorelDraw X4还增加了对大量新文件格式的支持，包括Microsoft Office Publisher、Illustrator CS3、Photoshop CS3、PDF 8、AutoCAD DXF/DWG、Painter X等等等等。
作为一个套装，CorelDraw X4继续整合了抓图工具Capture、点阵图矢量图转换工具Trace、剪贴图库与像素编辑工具Paint，其中Paint增加了对RAW相机文件格式的支持，还引入了一个新的自动控制功能“Straighten Image”，可以交互式快速调整倾斜的扫描图和照片。

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X4 features more than 50 new and significantly enhanced features, including:
-- New! Live text formatting: CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X4 introduces live text formatting, allowing users to preview text formatting options before applying them to a document. With this time-saving feature, users can now preview many different formatting options, including fonts, font size, and alignment, removing the "trial-and-error" typically associated with the design process.
-- New! Font identification: CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X4 now integrates with WhatTheFont(TM), the online font identification service from MyFonts.com. Users can save time by quickly identifying the font used in existing bitmap designs, artwork or other images received from clients.
-- New! Independent page layers: Users can now control and edit layers independently for each page of a document, reducing the occurrence of pages with empty layers. Users can also add independent guidelines for individual pages and master guidelines for an entire document. This gives users the ability to create different layers on a page-specific basis, unconfined by a single document structure.
-- New! Interactive tables: The new, interactive Table tool in CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X4 lets users create and import tables to provide a powerful, structured layout for text and graphics. Users can easily align, resize, or edit tables and table cells to suit their designs. In addition, users can convert delimited text and easily add and adjust images in individual cells.
-- Enhanced! Windows Vista(R) integration: CorelDRAW Graphics Suite is the only professional graphics suite Certified for Windows Vista(R). CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X4 has been designed to take advantage of the latest innovations from Windows Vista, while still offering a superior experience for Windows(R) XP users. CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X4 integrates with the desktop search capabilities of Windows Vista directly from within the Open and Import dialog boxes, enabling users to search for files by author, subject, file type, date, keywords, or other file properties. Users can also easily add their own keywords, ratings or other notes when saving files in order to better organize their projects.
-- New! CorelDRAW(R) ConceptShare(TM) integration: The new CorelDRAW(R) ConceptShare(TM) docker, accessible from within CorelDRAW Graphics Suite, integrates a valuable online collaboration tool directly within the user workflow. In a Web-based environment, CorelDRAW ConceptShare lets users share their designs and ideas with colleagues or clients in real time. Users can easily create multiple workspaces, upload their designs, and invite others to provide feedback or submit their own ideas without sending large files over email.
-- New! File format support: CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X4 maintains its position as market leader in file format compatibility by adding support for Microsoft(R) Office Publisher. Users can also expect seamless compatibility with Microsoft Word 2007, Adobe Illustrator(R) Creative Suite(R) 3, Adobe Photoshop(R) CS3, PDF 1.7 (Adobe(R) Acrobat(R) 8), AutoCAD(R) DXF(TM) and AutoCAD(R) DWG(TM), and Corel Painter(TM) X, making it easier than ever to exchange files with clients and colleagues.
-- New! Professionally designed templates: CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X4 includes 80 professionally designed and customizable templates, giving users a springboard to the design process. Flexible and easy to customize, the templates are accompanied by Designer Notes that provide information on the design choices made for the template, tips for outputting a design based on the template, and instructions for customizing the template while still adhering to design principles.
-- New! Specialized fonts: An extended selection of new fonts in CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X4 helps users ensure their output is optimized for its intended audience. This specialized collection of fonts includes single-line engraving fonts and OpenType(R) cross-platform fonts, which offer enhanced language support for Latin, Greek, and Cyrillic outputs in WGL4 format.
-- New! Welcome screen: With a new Welcome screen, CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X4 provides users with a centralized location to access recently used documents, templates, and learning tools, which include Tips & Tricks and video tutorials. To inspire users, the Welcome screen also includes a gallery that showcases designs created by CorelDRAW Graphics Suite users from around the world.
