carving

[ditchdoc]

I am trying to carve a logo into a board for trophy/plaques. I can't seem to figure out how to get the logo onto the board in the software without the recessed and feathered region around my logo. I only want the logo carved into the board. It is a simple outline of a figure. I'll try to post the figure here.

Hey Doc! Did you want something like what is pictured below? If so, import the picture into the library and hit the lower button until all you see is the outline of your pic, save it. Open up your project and select it from the library, place it where you want it and hit the invert buttion on the tool bar, that will do it.

Thanks for the reply, but where's "the picture below"? All I find is a box with a red X in the middle. I can't get it to open and show the picture. Can you re-send it as an attachment. Thanks a bunch, Ditchdoc

Thanks to everyone who helped. I seem to be slower at learning this stuff than others. ditchdoc
