I need help. I have the attached file, but I can't get it to cut right. I need it to cut the negative. Is there a way to do that. I have to do it for all the Cub Scout badges. Any help would be appreciate.
Thanks!
Lisa

Lisa,
There is no way to cut a negative or positive as every cutfile can yield either, depending on which part you weed out. if you want make a negative, like for a stencil, then after you cut, remove only the parts that are black on the picture. Then cut around the whole thing with scissors depending on how much border you want.

Not sure if this is what you are looking for - I took your JPG into Photoshop and made a reverse image in there (Image-Adjustments-Curve)
If you take this into SCAL2 you should be able to autotrace.
