| ** The title will be shown on the laser cutter display

| ** Explain why to use inner-outer sorting and when to use the faster TSP sorting
| |
| ** Explain that sometimes it's better to use bottom-up engraving direction (for example: for wood)
| |
| ** Explain that dithering influences the quality of engravings and that the right choice depends on the picture (Generally, if the picture is rather uniformly areal and has sharp edges they should use Bayer. If it is a more natural picture with gradients and fuzzy edges, like a portrait, they should use Floyd-Steinberg).
| |
| ** Explain that the program does automatic adjustments (like contrast stretching) to '''color''' and '''greyscale''' images. If they import a monochrome image no automatic adjustments will take place.
| |
| ** Tell them to always use the preview feature and inspect it. It prevents mistakes and also protects against software bugs.
