Re: having problem with tracing and svg file

If there is an invisible border of (.xx inches) from all sides of the paper that the reg marks can not print then I can plan for that. What ...

pathoffset bug or not

I was learning the different features of ecal 2 and looked at the path offset tool. I picked a shape from the library filled it with a pattern , all good.
