I invaribly have a customer that wants to use their artwork for something, a picture, fonts, etc.sometimes they are smart enough to export them, or save in a file that I can use. other times they have no clue. Today I had one who wanted me to use her santa. I literally went to her place, opened her file in Microsoft publisher 97, copied it to the clipboard, Opened the clipboard and saved it on a floppy as a .clp file . Then I took the file to my computer, pulled up the clipboard from accessories, and opened the clp file from the floppy drive. Then I went to sign lab and pasted it in. This works in most other graphic programs, too. Microsoft uses wmf files in most of their programs. So Try it you'll like it. Course we all know the import, export avenues, but a lot of us have never tried this method. Bill

most wmf files are layered, meaning lines crossing lines...and the cutter will cut all lines....best to look at the wmf in corel and take all the colors out...then you'll see all the lines....
