Format description
Early CorelDraw files are of an undocumented proprietary format where the first two bytes spell WL
in ASCII. Later formats were based on RIFF, with RIFF
as the first four bytes and a version identifier in bytes 9 to 15. The inner details (the data chunk of the RIFF version) remain proprietary.
