To be quite honest, I haven't used WordPerfect very much, so I couldn't say. But I do know it has very respectable formatting abilities, nice assortment of fonts and sizes, plus a lot more other amenities I just didn't expect from a free program; there are spreadsheets, point-whatchamacallit templates, even some for making up flyers, business cards and other things. There's links to go to to get even more templates, but though they looked very interesting, I didn't have much need for them, a lot of them had to do with other languages and those techno-functions that are far beyond my ken. It's quite easy to use, also. I like Scrivener, once I got used to it, but you practically need an engineering degree to figure out how to use the damn thing. Hope that helps!

The program has a "Building Wizard" which has a couple of garage/house configurations, but these only give you the basic outline, as with any other building that you may want to create. All the elements are there for insertion, including a variety of garage doors and roof types. Basically, you can use the wizard or create any building freehand, simply by starting with drawing the walls....then go from there. It takes a little practice and I suggest that you make a hardcopy of the startup manual and run through it a couple of times before trying it from scratch. You can download this from the CAD website. Enjoy.

I have the 3D V9 that didn't convert and I've used TurboCAD 2D since V1.7 that would convert to later 2D versions with a free V1 to V2 program! For 3D drawings that are totally realistic I have and use Chief Architect V-10! As the 2D I get from these 3D drawings isn't any good for fine drawings I switch to TurboCAD v18! While Chief Architect V-10 has the availability of a fine 2D drawing I prefer working in dedicated 2D programs! I originally learned architecture with a drafting board and a slide-rule so once I've found ways that work I use them!

Believe me - compared to Photoshop this is EASY to use.......once you focus on the kinds of things you want to do with it (it can do many things!), you'll probably find it more user-friendly.....I know I did!

I used it to draw a deck for the back yard, and used the dimension application to calculated lengths and widths, etc. and the deck ended up pretty great. Since I was a CAD CAM Programmer at work, and using different software, the TurboCAD software I had at home fitted in smoothly to what I wanted to do with the deck. Mastering TurboCAD isn't going to hold back anything you're planning to fabricate, and plan material usage. It's surely worth the effort for Your own projects You want to engage in..

Can't say fr personal experience but what I use it for os similar and should do great. Very wide range of line size from pencil line to large shading.

Yes,only a recommendation, make sure you have well explained your diagram before you start, you save time, technical support is very efficient if you have the specific question,good luck!!!

Yes, I would strongly recommend it. I have created several designs using Corel Draw. I am self taught and learned more from watching YouTube videos.

Yes it is. I use it for AutoCAD and Illustrator and I had to close the windows to notice.

Yes, it's easy. We used picture "anchors" for the 4 slots provided. Hold it up against the wall right where you want it and trace with a pencil inside the 4 circles at the top. Then hammer your anchors or nails or whatever through the spots you drew. Then just hang your calendar up. It's easy, and it's an awesome calendar. My kids love it.

I'm a neophyte but I've found it easy to use. I just redecorated my home and it took crisp shots of my interior. Buy a large memory card for it and a case as they're not included and you'd be good to go.

You can do one of two things, take a picture and apply measurements to the picture, by dragging and dropping the dimensions. Or you can sketch out a floor plan and add dimensions to the floor plan. It is a little more in depth, however, that is the basic idea behind the app. If you go to youtube and seach "Leica sketch app" you'll get some good videos that explain it more.

Perfect! If you have not used Corel Draw before, there is a "learning curve". If you have used Adobe Illustrator, using Corel Draw should present no problem.

I'd recommend you try MyPaint (http://mypaint.org/), if only because it is free AND multi-platform. And unlike some of the other excellent free programs like Krita or GIMP, MyPaint is from the ground-up designed as a digital paint program - thus it should prove less confusing to a beginner; you pick a brush, pick a color, and go.

You can either draw into the program on a sketch layer, or if you draw on paper you can scan it, either or is good. i recommend a great drawing tablet however.

the software works for me. I don't use it much and it is not intuitive but it does the job. take a deep breath and let go of your frustration.... :) I hope this helps
