bowhunter012004 4 Posted December 22, 2009 Instructional video made for beginners on how to vectorize an image and cut with sign blazer. Quick video, nothing fancy. I took an image off the forum and vectorized it quick. Hope this helps anyone having trouble vectorizing an image to cut. Just took a basic image that someone had posted. I didnt get fancy or do anything crazy. Just a plain outline of how to. Also posted this in vectorizing category. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CRD 9 Posted December 22, 2009 Wonderfull. Which software you recorded? Jing? It seems to run smooth. I tried some videos to make too of contour cut with SC PRO but is seems not to run smooth. Paco Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
deth502 39 Posted December 22, 2009 excellent video!! one thing i noticed though, when you resized it in sb, if i followed correctly, you wanted it 10x10, so you set the workspace to that and resized it to the workspace. i find it easier to just select the object, and type in the dimensions i want on the bottom.

bowhunter012004 4 Posted December 22, 2009 Thanks, maybe it will cut down on the confusion of how to vectorize. I used snagit 5.02. I tried in Jing but it would be choppy, and save in some goofy file name. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
