Help with file

[Daniel Wolanski]

Hi All,
I must admit I am terrible at Corel Draw. I promised to do a 10" x 10" sample of the attached logo for a customer but can't get it too look good worth a darn. I asked for an .eps file and got one but didn't realize it was not a vectorized eps. Now I'm playing with the bitmap converter over and over and not liking the results. What is the trick here that I'm missing?

Try this method, I use it a lot.

Select the bitmap. Go to bitmap menu, click quicktrace. Delete the original bitmap. Looks good to my eyes.

Thanks for the link Martin. That seems to work very nice. I will have to add that vid to my favorites.

Hi John, I tried that and it doesn't look good when you blow it up. Good tip when you have a clean image though.

Thanks!!

I'm not sure of what exactly you are trying to do but does this help?

Daniel, this is quick trace from X5, I think it was improved from X4. Saved as X4. Tell me if it looks the same?

Hi John,
Looks a lot better with a X5 quicktrace than my X4. Dang, now I have to think about an upgrade
