    Free Raster to Vector Software

    Hello all, new to CNC zone. Is there a good raster to vector program anyone would recommend to use, that is free. I have downloaded a program called magic tracer, works ok but seems to be way to many variables to adjust. I want to import some logos and pictures to engrave, but I have to convert them. Any help or recommendations would be great thanks very much. :cheers:

    Inkscape is free, works great for things like a logo, try my Inkscape plugin here to convert the jpeg/bitmap to DXF.

    I also wrote a small tutorial for converting fonts to a DXF file (CamBam).

    Google wintopo, they have a freeware version that does a good job at creating vector images.
