Craft Edge

I am new to SCAL. I have an image I am trying to cut to vinyl or even etch it on glass. When I trace the object the edges are not smooth and will look horrible in vinyl or etching. I have an old cricut and will be getting a new machine for Christmas. I am trying to design until I get a machine. When I etch, I cut on contact paper an then use that as my stencil.

I get 2 cut lines my outlines.

I didn't have any issues tracing your image. I only work with SCAL4 so I don't know if it's a matter of different settings now or not. But either way, here's my tracing of it.

Thank you. I will open it when I get home.

Thank you so much. Is this how the file opened, or did you have to do anything? If it is how it opened, I wonder what is different about my settings? I am really wanting to get this down as I am looking at a KNK Orbit for Christmas.

Thank you Sandy. I am guessing something is not right in my settings. If I open in Paint Shop Pro and save it as a png, it if fine also. I don't know what I am doing.

Here are the settings I used... just default ones:
