Hey to everyone!
I'm new to this forum and to the laser engraving world, but not to the woodworking world. I've recently purchased a Zing 24 40 watt and use Corel X4, PhotoGrav 3.0, Vista 64. I've spent a lot of time learning not only the laser but the computer in general, since wood, glass, and my hands have been my life prior to adding the laser to the tool arsenol. So, here's my dilemma. After opening a photo in Photopaint, converting it to greyscale, cropping it, and resizing it, I export it to a folder and then open it with Photo Grav. Once in PhotoGrav, I select all the settings needed and then final process. The problem is that I've received two different results one in which I can use the tone curve adjustment on and one where I can't. I've looked at the file info on both of the results and can't see any difference. What bugs me is the result I want, the tone curve adjustable one, is the one I can't replicate now! I'd post an image, but when exported as a jpeg they look the same but in Corel they look competely different. Any HELP please? And, THANKS in advance!
Jeff
