North Star Help

I have tried and failed a few times to convert a North Star image in inkscape. The points of the star just won't copy.
Can anyone assist me with this image?

I cannot seem to extract it. I get an error message that I can't open it as an archive.

I'm not sure why that happened. I downloaded the file directly from this thread and brought it into SCAL2 and it cut okay. Those "rays" between the points are pretty thin and I'm not sure they'll cut that well if cut too small on paper. They might do better with vinyl. Why don't you try downloading it again.

My bad. My sleep deprived mind was trying to unzip something that wasn't zipped! I am going to try cutting it out of vinyl so hopefully all will
cut nicely. Thank you for all of your help.
