I am bring the original photo into PhotoPaint.....then do the cut out...convert to bitmap for photograv. Its then when I save it, it says it will merge with the background (which i have selected none).

I can't work on it anymore because I keep getting a "Just in Time Bugging" window popping up all the time in both Corel and Photo Paint.

What file format are you saving it as? The native PhotoPaint format should save transparency, but a format like .BMP won't.

Brian,

You can't save a .BMP(which is required by PhotoGraV) w/o a background. Just be sure that you set your background to white or black before exporting.

That is, Black if you are going to invert (e.g., black marble, acrylic) or white for positive (e.g., wood, light colored plastic)

If you must use PhotoGrave it will give a box. Usually simple to make that appear not to be there.

Go into the 'Object Manager' and move the picture to the bottom of the list. That will place everything else on top of it.
