Hi Woodguy,

Have you checked out the How-To section. There's some info on Inkscape there: http://www.vectric.com/WebSite/Vectric/ ... how_to.htm
It's the 3rd to last How-To near the bottom of the page

what am i doing wrong?
this is how i went about it i open inkscape then open the file i want to make into vector [ a jpeg file of a victorian gingerbread bracket] i then click on the file in inkscape to select it.
i then use shift-alt-b then click preview then ok i then click on the open file and drag it off to one side. then i go to view, display mode click outher this gives me a clean looking vector outline.
i then go to save as give file a name and save file i now try to open this file in turbocad and get this message. it says failed to open filter not matching this file
also before this i saved the file a box comes up asking make boundry box around fill page
or convert to text what i do with this
i am all new to this so any help would be great
thanks woodguy

Hi
I do not have a copy of Turbocad so I cannot tell you whether or not Turbocad supports EPS, The boundry box just leave boxes unchecked and save, If you want a box around your work then check that box, the text thing I don't know I have not used that at all, If Turbocad does support EPS just make sure that is what you save in inkscape, check the previous picture I posted.
Hope this helps
