Re: Inkscape
I can't help you with the double lines in Inkscape. I know that sheetcam will remove duplicate vectors, when you import. If you use Autocad you can use the overkill command to remove duplicate vectors.

Re: Inkscape
I had this exact problem yesterday. The trick is to use a program like "paint" while it's still a bitmap, and paint the coutouts white and the steel parts black. Then once it's exported to Inkscape and trace the bitmap it doesn't see both sides of each line as an edge.
I scratched my head on that one for a couple hours.

Re: Inkscape
You can get rid of them in Sheetcam too, if everything else looks correct. Just go to Contour Properties, select the line you don't want, and either delete it or move it to another layer that won't get a toolpath applied.
