[CorelDraw] - Trying to vector a simple Maltese cross
OK, newbie here just dabbing in vinyl cutting and T-Shirts. I am trying to get a Maltese cross to convert to vector, have tried several different ways and every way makes it look worse then I started. I tried looking for a Maltese cross vector but have been unlucky so far, I am doing this for my Local Volunteer fire Dept which I serve on to try and save a little cash for us. Any tips and help would be greatly welcomed, This is all not for profit FYI.
Thanks,
Scott
but youhave to use your bezier pen tool to draw the outline. When you get good with that tool you can probably get it done in 10-15 minutes or less. Learn what the different nodes do, and how to manipulate them.
I stock didn't throw up any fire dept maltese crosses. Will have to play with the that tool. This is photo is close to what I would like to use.
also my e-mail is Laph9979 @ yahoo com
I put spaces and left out the dot so that bots dont grab it from forum
I decided last year that using one of the online vector conversion service companies was well worth the small amount of money it cost me. For $15 to $25, I've been able to convert a graphic to vector using someone like RIPTAW Graphics. Fast turnaround and let's me work on other things. In most cases, I am able to pass the costs on. I understand in your case that it's a volunteer thing. But your time is worth something too.
