Need Help!- Bobart, calculating a working toolpath from an embossed image.

Allen,
How did you fix the outside edges? I duplicated your settings on your pic and also messed with mine. They both look puffy around the edges. What do I need to adjust to get rid of this? I'm very close now thanks to you.

You know all I did was play with the setting for the size of the radius for the embossing. Changing it up and down till it went away.

I tried to flatten it a few different ways but didn't come up with what I wanted.

So I just kept adjusting it, then it went away.

Changed radius on the swept emboss? I have the same exact settings as you do for both embosses with the same pic and it looks good exept still puffy around the edges. Also, how do you create a "screenshot" for posting?

to you Allen, I got it to workI went into my original drawing and doubled all of the inner lines, then trimmed the outside edge so it is more like a flower with very very close petals, then just used regular emboss and it came out great. Let me know if there is a better or easier way that you are aware of. Also would like to know how you create screenshots for posting please. Woo-Hoo, I,m a happy banana.

Thanks once again, Jeff

I am glad that I could help.


If you want to post the images or screen shots this is what you do.

Hit print screen on your computer, open paint and then past.

What you get is an image of you screen loaded in paint. Then you crop the image and save it.

Next you'll need to use photo bucket or some other image web hosting service.

Once you upload the image then you can use the insert image just like you would in word.
