What program will let me open a jpg or related file and click by click hand trace a picture, to be then saved as a wmf or dxf?

Try inkscape. there are others I cant remember, also photo shop or corel and any cad program should do as well.

I use www.wintopo.com , it's free.

Wintopo is what I used to create all the free DXF (150) files on my blog (link is below in sig.).

Although I already have CorelDraw, I think I'll give that Wintopo program a spin just because I love using free software. Thanks for sharing both the link and your work Switcher!
