If you have CorelDraw or several other programs, you can batch convert to svgs. Took me about 5 minutes, and about 5 clicks of the mouse.
You can also cut on larger cutters (not Cricut) using hpgl print language in Coreldraw.

jeepers94 Can you tell me how you did that. I thought I would never get them to download. I guess because I did not have the right program to open zip files but I finally got the right program and then they are eps or jpeg so I still can not use them because I can't figure out how to convert them to svg files. Can you please tell me more details on how you did it or anyone please help. Thanks, Brenda

In Corel Draw,I'm not sure if all versions are the same.I use X4.
It goes this way. Click on tools,then macros,run macros,macros in should have All standard projects,click run.
It will bring up a screen for source,destination and Convert to. Just put in where the files to be converted are stored, and the folder where you want the converted files to be saved.
make sure you have Convert to set to svg, then click OK.
Just watch the bottom of your screen for activity during conversion. Do not click ok again,or you will end up with duplicate files. The first time I ran this,it finished so fast I didn't think
it worked, so I clicked it again. Rather then try to delete every other file, I just deleted them all and ran the program again.

to gmapatty.. I just saved the files on my computer and then I went to one of the individual jpg files clicked on it and then right clicked open with and clicked on inkscape and then it changed all of them to svg files. It would not work with the eps ones. It was amazing and it may depend on your computer and what windows you have. I have windows 7 so I don't know if it will work for you but it is worth a try. Let me know
