I forgot to mention that there is always Brian's freeware application "XColor" for download from the XaraXone. It's a very niftly little application that enables you do modify/merge colours in a trace.

You can also limit the number of colours in a trace automatically. Egg wrote this easy to understand tutorial that explains how: http://talkgraphics.infopop.net/1/Op...8&m=3211946664
