Gaz,
I see you beat me to it! and because I like to see what others create from the same file... I took a peek at your file.

when I went to move things around to see how the file would work, This is what I got.

That file will not work properly.

There is over 150 grouped objects.

I think you may have used inkscape with the color filters on. The easier way to make the file is to use the paint bucket to get the pig's parts.

I am willing to walk thru with you and the OP on how I created this file!

actually I use a totally different program to do it. normally works great...... might have to go have a look again.
I do normally use the paintbucket fill in inkscape to trace (I like it better than the trace bitmap) but I will use whatever gets the job done.

something must have gone screwy today LOL

by all means post a tut on how as it may help the OP

Even my file as posted won't work well in SCAL because I didn't change the ovals into a path!

I will re-work and re-post, so feel free to download the updated file in the above post.

of course, it will depend on what you wish to do with the file.
if you want to print & cut it, you would only need an oval around the pic
if you wish to cut in vinyl or paper and layer it then you'd need all the colours as individual "layers" or "collections"

The Files didn't work for me. One just cut a square and that was it, the other cut the pig and oval outline, and the mouth and nothing else. I am trying to make this for my friend, what they want to do is use it like a stencil, the vinyl is going to stick so I guess they need to paint it on. I hope that make sense. I really appreciate all of you for trying to help me out!!! What else can I do? Any suggestions? THANKS!!!!!!
