as requested on support…
given a low-resolution pixel image:
but being provided a greyscale SVG:
in order to get a file suited for cutting we launch Carbide Create (we’ll use v8):
Set Background:
importing the image and adjusting as necessary.
Done
Import the greyscale vectors (after converting to SVG if need be):
OK
Adjust size as need be:
also position:
until one arrives at:
at which point each vector may be adjusted until all redundant lines are removed.
Where appropriate use either Node Editing or Trim Vectors:
Note that some lines are doubled up:
Remove any extras:
then use Trim Vectors:
Removing what is not wanted:
OK
Use Node Editing to remove small portions of lines:
Repeat and iterate as necessary.
Once the file is reduced to a series of lines which match up with the line art, export as an SVG, open in a tool which will outline the strokes, do so, Boolean union the result, then export as an SVG and re-import.
