Although you could create objects and layers in earlier versions of Photo-Paint, and even preserve them with CPT format, now you can import a layered CPT or PSD file for that matter into CorelDraw 7/8 and Ungroup to edit layers. If you don't like white background in your bitmap, just hit Delete key- that easy!

CorelDraw 7/8 also includes much of Photo-Paint's functionality right inside Draw module. Create your artwork, and from Bitmap menu select Convert to Bitmap). Choose your color depth and resolution and check Transparent Background. If you are planning to use some of Effects filters included in Draw 7's in-place bitmap editing, you should enclose your objects inside a no fill, no outline box to make an interface of workspace for Effect. Draw 8 has an Auto-Inflate Bitmap option.

With CorelDraw and Photo-Paint 6, you will have an improved bitmap handling. It’s like magic. You can import bitmap into Draw and watch background and unwanted colors vanish. With CorelDraw, you can hide everything in its invisibility cloak!
