Changing a photo into black and white
I am a engraver and I recently bought a laser engraver.. the basic principal is that it takes a two color image (blakc and white) and burns off the black areas to create the image in wood, glass, plactics.
The problem i am haveing is that I need to be able to change a photo, (or digtal pic) into 2 color.. I have been trying corel draw and using converting it to line art... sometimes it works most of the time not
Can anyone help?

Another step, you can invert it so that it would look like this:

>>>Corel Draw is a vertor package, designed to create images using objects and shapes.
>>>Corel Photopaint is for working with images, bitmaps, jpg's, scanned images.
I believe the point Antonio was trying to make is that the Corel Graphics Suite includes both CorelDraw and CorelPhotoPaint, so having one may mean having the other one as well.

I'm always interested to know how the problem was resolved...even if it wasn't my way.
Yup
Would be nice, plus sound like an interesting bit of kit, would like to know more about it.
I would suggest a split, as most experts here gave good suggestions, though it is difficult to tell which worked best for the asker.
