plt file incorrect

Post by victorgrant »

Hello Everyone, I seem to keep having this problem so hoping someone will guide me to correcting what I maybe doing wrong. I have saved a jpg image ( Object.jpg ) to open in Inkscape ver .92 using Windows 10, I always save any image as Black on White Background to give the best contrast. Once in Inkscape I use the "Path/Trace Bitmap" and this is where I can't always get correct results when saving as a *plt file. I normally use the settings shown,
Single Scan
Brightness cutoff ( tested at 400, 600, 900 )
I have attached an images showing the Settings and Results what I see when I try and import the plt file into my Laser Software. Now 75% of doing this with other images works straight away using a Threshold around 600 but when I have an image like this one that can't be saved correcly as a plt then I can't complete that job


I didn't find the right solution from the Internet.
