This is the best I can do…I’m not giving out my email address.

1. Put your SVG on your desktop.

2. Open Easel  

3. Notice the arrow on the left and click on it

Click on SVG

You should then click on the desktop and click on the file you want to load into Easel.

It would be polite to not type in all uppercase. It looks like you are shouting and is harder to read.

Hi Joseph. There are other programs you can try as well, such as PixelCNC, which will directly load images that you can then toolpath off of (as well as being able to load in models/vectors into a project) or waterline contour them at a specified Z height to generate vector paths that you can then generate toolpaths from as well.
