edge. Select to trace a cut line along the contour of both the outside and
inside edges of your image. In this case, the software will essentially attempt to
cut away anything it sees as white space. Then, enter the desired Offset value
colored portion of your image. Entering a value greater than 0 will cause the
cut line to be placed away from the colored portion of your image. Entering a
value less than 0 will cause the cut line to be placed within the colored portion
of your image. Entering an exact value of 0 will cause the cut line to be placed
on the very edge of where the colored portion of your image meets white
space.
