You can also do this right in SCAL...just trace the digi, ungroup, break apart, and give each piece a color...under View uncheck show outlines only to reveal the colors assigned in the color palette.

You can color the image and then click on file/export bitmap.. this will prevent it from changing into an svg.. you can also convert to jpeg instead of png.. I do this all the time..
