If you have Corel, you can pull up your graphic in Corel and copy/paste to Dr. Engrave. Depending on the graphic, sometimes you wil get double outlines (?) and sometime single line graphics. It is a pain in the kazoo to have to switch back and forth between programs, but it works. I think that when I get more accustomed to running my EGX 300, I may be able to eliminate Dr. Engrave.</p> <p>Mickey</p><hr /><a name="a4855_8"></a><p><b>From: Peter</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=4855.8">#8</a>]<br /> 14 Sep 2006<br /><b>To: ALL</b></p> <p>Thanks guys...</p> <p>thats what I was afraid of...</p> <p>regards</p> <p>Peter <span class="e_devil" title="(devil)"><span class="e__">(devil)</span> </span></p> <hr /><a name="a4855_9"></a><p><b>From: varn (VARNCO)</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=4855.9">#9</a>]<br /> 16 Sep 2006<br /><b>To: Peter</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=4855.1">#1</a>] 16 Sep 2006</p> <p>Dr. Engrave is very basic, but the good thing is that it has a small learning curve (i'm trying to learn engravelab now... powerful, but a huge learning curve).</p> <p>Engravelab can import .bmp and .dxf files only. For DXF, it has to be an older format, and the file size can't be too big, otherwise it'll crash engravelab.</p> <p>Now, if you have Corel Draw 13, you can import any file format into that, run the trace program, which will create vector artwork. You then select the vector art work, and can copy and paste it into Dr. Engrave.</p> <p>So, essentially, get a .eps, open it in Corel Draw, and then cut and paste it into Dr. Engrave. I do it all the time.</p> <p>Alternatively, get the .eps save it as a b/w .bmp, and he can import it into Dr. Engrave.</p><hr /><p align="center">Show messages: <a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=4855.1">All</a>  <a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=4855.1">1-6</a>  7-9</p> <h4><a href="lthread_list.php?webtag=EE">Back to thread list</a> | <a href="llogout.php?webtag=EE">Login</a></h4> <h6>© 2025 <a href="http://www.beehiveforum.net/" target="_blank">Project Beehive Forum</a></h6> </body>
