smokenjoe50 0 Posted August 9, 2007 I just got this cutter an I have figured out how to cut letters. But what I cant figure out how to do is scan a simple image and cut it. I am using inkscape and signcut. will these programs work or do I need something better? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kenimes 42 Posted August 9, 2007 If you scan your image, then open with InkScape, you will still need to vectorize it before you open with SignCut. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kenimes 42 Posted August 15, 2007 I usually mess with the threshold settings till it comes out as best as I can get it. Depends on the image quality as well. If it is a poor image you are trying to vectorize, it may not come out so well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
