I have tried and tried to use the trace tool to no avail and am looking for help or possibly a tutorial that will help.
I have read about people scanning items to create templates for engraving. I have a pen (from laserbits) that I want to create a template for. I scan it and then start to fight with Trace and PowerTrace in Corel. It never gets all of the background and I end up either editing pixels or printing the scan, taking a razor and tracing the image, re-scanning and doing a fill. It is the shadow it the sacn that causes me the headaches.
Since I need to do other templates like this, I really want to figure a way to master this. I have attached on of the scan. Can someone point me in the right direction? The whole "give a man a fish..." quote applies here.
