Cant remember how to convert the image!

Recommended Posts

I just use my cutter for making signs for my families businesses and havent made one in a while.  Anyways for the life of me i can't remember how to get the image vectorized.  I just want a simple line drawing out of it.  Trying to do this for my moms x-mas present.  Thanks for any help

Take the bitmap into inkscape, go to path, then trace bitmap, make any adjustments from there.

Thanks for the quick response.  I have done that and saved as eps file.  Everything looks good but when i import the file into sign blazer nothing shows up on the workspace.

Instead of saving it as an .eps in Inkscape, copy and paste it into Signblazer. You can then save as an .eps in Signblazer. That usually works for me.

Do you have Corel draw?  If so try saving it to an older version, or post the file and someone will convert it for you Merry Christmas

Also make sure you have black selected as a color in Sign Blazer

Thanks for the help everyone.  I thought i had attached the file to the first post but i didn't acutally click attach so it didn't post.  Here it is and hopefully someone can help.  I think a .eps file is the best for me.

Here is my attempt, the quality of the image isn't very good so that means the vector won't be very good, will need node editing to get it looking better.
