MZ SKEETER 4,709 Posted September 17, 2011 post the file, if it still has bitmap in it, it won't work. It has to be exported from inkscape as an .eps file. (If your not doing that) svg, won't work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

troyr 4 Posted September 20, 2011 did you trace(vector) the jpeg first, then save an an .eps file before importing into Signblazer? You have to. yes i did. i followed the step by step that someone posted. Are you talking about the trace bitmap menu? If thats what your talking about then yes i have done that. maybe im missing a step. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MZ SKEETER 4,709 Posted September 20, 2011 you could post a file that you can't import into Signblazer on here, and maybe we could see the problem.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MZ SKEETER 4,709 Posted September 20, 2011 did you vectorize the Yankees logos yourself? Or get the file from someplace else? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MZ SKEETER 4,709 Posted September 21, 2011 I didn't see anything wrong with it, but I did save it back as an older version 8.eps. See if you can import it.. NY LOGO READY FOR CUT1.eps Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MZ SKEETER 4,709 Posted September 21, 2011 no, you can make a special folder to save your designs to. , just for your designs.. then import from that folder Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
troyr 4 Posted September 21, 2011 no, you can make a special folder to save your designs to. , just for your designs.. then import from that folder when i go to signblazer and hit import,do i need to put a file name where it ask ontop? when i do it say it cant find it.and also when i look for the folder on the right there is nothing there.
