Trace outline in Corel

[bms]

We sometimes get asked how to vectorise a file from CorelDraw so that it can be saved as an EPS format file and then imported into specific cutting software. We don't use Corel but I believe it is done with a trace command. So the question, for the benefit of many (hopefully), is how is this done? If someone has the time can they do a simple video (like Paul did on PhotoShop) or show various screen dumps of the process? If not then plain old english step by step process with do...

Watches thread with interest, as I can't figure it out

I often used the trace function in corel but unfortunately when i try to use it now i get an error message and the function is no longer available. Very odd!

I have had trouble with my corel for sometime now and this is the latest issue so unfortunately can't help.

But I would be interested if anyone knows why a function option would stop working if anyone knows.

Also watching with interest.
