Who knows how to convert a (EPS) silhouet to a outline which is vectorbased? Else I have to draw the silhouet with the pentool by hand, which cost a lot of time. And I have a lot of silhouets.....
Thanks
Ed
Ed, did you try to import the eps file with the EPS, PS, PRN filter instead of the straight EPS filter?
Youre great! Thanks a lot, saves me mega time! Ed
You can find more details in these related threads:
I read the directions you posted a year ago - I followed them but I still do not get the outside of the object to have a vector line.
What I want is to be able to cut out the image on a laser

There're two EPS files, as vector (cerated with CorelDRAW, Illustrator, freehand...) or as a bitmap (made with Photoshop). The most common is the vector-based EPS, so you can import it as is to CorelDRAW (as Diane said). Then, you can ungroup, select the objects you want, duplicate it (numeric keypad + or copy/paste) and choose "weld". Also, you can use the Contour tool
In CorelDRAW X4 you have a new option that made the countour with one click (create boundary)
