There's a timely article in the April 2007 issue of A&E magazine, by Jim Stadler.

CorelDraw "Auto Tracing"

Has nothing to do with cars. :-$

Holly,

Just select the image in the image Mike did...........right click on red to draw the outline........ungroup and remove the line (box) around image. Then remove the black....

hope this helps

An upgrade to X3 will allow you to create a boundry line around an image with one click.

Well this might explain a bit of my brain freeze...you guys gave me some stuff to do here that I haven't done before! Trace - yes - but the other stuff, no.

Thank you so much!

Now...has anyone seen my brain?? ;)

Use this as a teaching guide.

Probably corel 9 but very well done.

Holly,


I cannot be certain, but I thought I saw your brain having an umbrealla drink at the beach just now when I went down for my swim.......If I see it again tomorrow I 'll tell it you are looking for it

In the meantime, if I understand you correctly, you want to vector cut that image OUT of something. Is this correct?

Hi Chuck! Good news - my brain came home last night. Tanned and tired, but it's home! :)

Yes, I'm making a large plaque out of the WM you saw. I was able to cut it out of birch last night - it looks perfect!

I don't know why I didn't know about the steps posted yesterday - I'm totally baffled on how I did this before but I swear I have. Anyway, need to check out the gravograph link above to learn more!!!

Thanks for asking!

You may want to try Adobe Streamline, it's an autotrace software for bitmap images with added functionality and far more powerful than corel's autotrace.
