I ran into a problem trying to engrave an image to a ceramic coffee mug. Created an image on a different computer using clipart and Word for text. Imported image and got the white ghostly image around the lines of the engraving. Ditched the file and created new inside of the Corel program. Worked out great.

My question is why did the ghostly background show up?? Had my salesman show me several weeks ago how to get rid of the 'dam white box'. Slept overnight and forgot what he did. Seemed pretty easy. I believe he converted the clipart to a bitmap. I have tried this and failed attempts.

Do jpeg images convert to bitmap in Corel successfully? If so how? The new file I made I used a gif clipart image. The gif file worked out just fine. Is it a prefered method to use gif or tif images instead of jpeg???
