Wont cut after importing from corel

[ppalmernc 0]

Any tips on how to cut after importing from corel. My artwork imports with no problem but when I try to send to the cutter I get a message that there is a bitmap on the page. I tried converting to curves, I've tried vectorizing but it wont do it.

See attached graphic.

I have the same problem trying to cut from Flexi Sign Pro.

I know if you import your image into SignBlazer, you have to change the color mode to monochrome and then vectorize it. After that, you have to delete the original image because SignBlazer will recognize it as a bitmap. It should cut with no problems then. You'll probably have to play with the settings when you change it to monochrome though. If that doesn't work, try using Vector Magic. Here's the link.

It does a pretty good job vectorizing graphics. I don't use Corel so I can't help you much there. Sorry.

Thanks, how do I change the color mode to monochrome?

Go to image, mode, then monochrome and last vectorize.
