Hi Everyone,

I'm using the macro in Corel (X5) to convert the svg file (found here: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3829), but it always ends up as shown in the screenshot. Any ideal how to get around this?

Thanks
Kevin

Hi Kevin. just copy and paste the image from the site to x5 that should do it. I did and it came out fine.

Kevin maybe i spoke too soon I am getting the same thing.No Idea. I just reconstructed the cross from the shield and the u-shaped object by replacing the nodes that were skewed.

Open the svg in inkscape http://inkscape.org/download/ then copy and paste into Corel.

Corel seems to have a problem interpreting a couple of shapes in that file. Try this version...

one known thing (corel X3):
if a SVG-file contains a "rect" (rectangle or sqare) shape, it must have rounded corners with a defined radius rx/ry > 0.0mm! (e.g. rx=0.1 mm ry=0.1mm)
