Hello everyone,
I have a question that is probably way too easy for some of you. I need to engrave a picture for a customer onto an oval shaped piece of wood, but she wants it oval shaped. I know this should be very simple to do, but I just can't seem to make the darn transformation. If anyone has the patience to help me, I would really appreciate it.

Thanks in advance.
Leigh

Leigh,

In CorelDraw use a PowerClip. Here is a link to an article about it.

I want to thank Tim and Mitchell for the help. I knew the answer was in my book, but my sleep deprived brain would not compute. I have since lasered a sample for the customer and gotten the job. Thanks again. I really appreciate all of the posts and the time people take to answer questions, no matter how simple the answer is.

By the way, I showed some other folks the sample and have numerous prospects. And, of course, I said the "programming" is the hard part. Got some sympathetic nods and appreciative nods. Now if I can just get them to part with some cash....

Gonna sleep well tonight!
