3.05.1 Using Raster Images
• Use File>Import>File to open a raster image (JPG, BMP, TIFF, PNG, etc) in Signmaster. To add a contour
cut around this image, there are two options:
◊ Add the contour while in the main Signmaster window – this process is covered in Section 5.01.
◊ Add the contour after entering the Contour Cut Wizard window by clicking on Build Contours:
o Using Build Contours essentially takes you to the same Create Cut–Contour window and the
process is the same as presented in Section 5.01.
• The advantage of tracing images before entering the Contour Cut Wizard window is the abilty to edit the
tracing and save the file with the tracing in place. An example of editing a trace is covered in Section 5.01.2.
