Opne PhotoPaint X3 from Corel X5

Hey you geniuses out there.
I some old graphics that have to be exported from PaintX3 instead of PaintX5.

I normally click the "Edit Bitmap" button. Is there a way to do the same except use X3.

I do not want this as a permanent change just a button to call up X3 and edit the graphics.

Thanks for any help you can throw my way!

Why the need for the export? X5 should be able to open any X3 file.

Shelby,

We have some old graphics in Corel that we need to match the color profile that is in PPX3.

For some reason when we export directly from Corel, the colors are different than if we export from PP.

So we need to save them out of PPX3 instead of PP5 to match some old prints.

I think I mis-understood your question.

Our process is to open Corel, then convert the object to bitmap.
Then we click "edit bitmap" in corel and then save it from PPX5.

I just wondered if I could click and have it open in X3 PP instead of X5 PP.

Am I making any sense?

Hi.
You may be able to open the x3 color profile in x5.
