Besides rastering is there other ways to laser etched an image? My tiny diode laser didn’t seem to raster but instead just stay on for image and turn off for no image ( can’t think of right term right now)
you can do raster engrave, so vector the image and then convert each color into small lines
How would I do that in inkscape?
Yes you can in Inkscape. You need something like D in this link http://graphicdesign.stackexchange.com/questions/39705/cutting-multiple-lines-curves-with-a-closed-path-in-inkscape
There is a way to create multiple parallel lines but don’t remember how it’s. Called
