    Default Re: Coreldraw and problem converting an image into DXF

    that is not a good image to trace, far too loose and dirty to trace cleanly enough, this may well be the reason for your issue, as gary has mentioned

    Yes, I agree it's far to dirty.

    Here's a cleaner version, how does this one work?

    Egg - The member is using CorelDRAW which I don't think can open a XAR file. Can you export this as PDF?

    His opening statement says "as a Xara user I'm quite new to Coreldraw", so he probably can open a XAR.

    Yes, I believe he's saving as .dxf from Xara.

    Often, one of the XAR to CMX export options open fine in CD. I believe it is the older of the two export filters.

    Thanks Keith, I missed that.

    Egg, that's a great job. My point in posting the scan was it would save some trouble tracing everything by hand. The vector image can still be simplified.
