Assuming you've been able to open Pattern Editor, with your card reader plugged into a USB port, you click on download scan in Project Designer. This will open your scan in Pattern Editor.
Check your scan, make sure it's what you want to save then in Pattern Editor click on File, Save to Pattern Library and then save it wherever you want. You can create a new folder to save it in.
Play around with it, you'll get it figured out. Heck, I did!!.
After you've saved your pattern, you can put it on a board in Project Designer and then carve it.

Good Luck
