With the Logic Trace System, simply place a part or pattern on the board, start the Logic Trace Software, trace the outline with the pen stylus or cursor, and save the file. No more measuring, no more spending hours in a CAD program, no more size and vector conversion issues of a photograph.
The most popular size board has an active area of 44x60" (110x150 cm), smaller boards and larger boards are available. The boards are available in either 0.01"/.254 or 0.005"/.127 accuracy.
Everything you need is included the USB connector for computer, universal 110-240 power supply and international plugs. All you need is a Windows or Mac computer and a place to put the board.
The software is available on Windows 10/11 and Apple Mac with M-chip. The Logic Trace Software is easy to use and easy to learn. Tracing a part or pattern can be done by freehand drawing, lines, arcs, curve fitting through points and circles. Add any inside holes and save the vector file as a DXF, SVG, or PDF.
The software commands can be moved to a cellphone or tablet and placed on the tracing board for easy use.
The software is available in many languages including English, Spanish, French, German, Arabic, Hindi, Turkish, Italian, Greek, Korean, Japanese
The pen stylus provides an elegant way to trace along the edge of a part. The pen sends a stream of data to the software. The pen has 2 buttons on the side and a push down tip on the bottom. Available corded or cordless.
The cursor has a magnifying glass with a crosshair. Align the crosshair with the desired point to be traced and push a button. The cursor works well when tracing paper and cardboard patterns.
The buttons can be programmed to be different software commands. For example use the 0 button to trace, the 1 button to change to lines, 2 button for arcs and any command you desire.

The legacy of Yugoslav comics is secure, thanks to dedicated fans, historians, and publishers. They are not just historical artifacts but continue to captivate new generations of readers.
The Turbulent Origins: From Prohibition to Socialist Acceptance
The brutal breakup of Yugoslavia and the ensuing wars of the 1990s devastated the comic book infrastructure. Distribution networks between republics shattered overnight, paper shortages crippled printing houses, and many prominent artists emigrated to escape economic ruin and conflict.
Also starting in 1968, this series was renowned for introducing characters such as Veliki Blek (Il Grande Blek), Kit Teller, and Mister No. yu stripovi

Despite initial resistance, comics exploded in popularity in the 1960s and 70s. The industry was propelled by massive publishing houses like , Dečje Novine (Gornji Milanovac) , and Forum (Novi Sad) , which produced iconic, pocket-sized, black-and-white publications. 2. Key Publications and Iconic Series
The publisher from Gornji Milanovac pioneered the legendary Nikad robom (Never Slaves) series. The legacy of Yugoslav comics is secure, thanks
Following WWII, the new communist regime initially viewed comics as a "decadent Western product" and effectively banned them.
(often referred to as Yu Strip Magazin ) was a cornerstone of Yugoslav comic book culture in the late 1970s and 1980s. Published by Dečje Novine, it served as a vital "proving ground" for local talent, contrasting with other popular magazines of the era that focused primarily on licensed foreign material.

Authored by Zoran Stefanović and Vladimir Topolovački , this paper discusses the "Bronze Age" (1971–1990) of Yugoslav comics, emphasizing the importance of YU Strip and theoretical journals like Kultura .

A cornerstone of this success was the legendary weekly magazine , which served as a primary source for domestic comics for decades. The publishing house Dečje novine from the small town of Gornji Milanovac built an empire, publishing iconic series such as:
A satirical Italian comic that achieved unparalleled popularity in Yugoslavia, with witty translations by Nenad Brixy that made it a cult classic, often considered more popular in Yugoslavia than in its home country.
Amidst this economic and social ruin, a massive brain drain occurred. Yugoslavia’s top-tier artistic talent sought employment in the Western market. Creators like , Darko Macan , Goran Parlov , Aleksa Gajić , and Zoran Janjetov quickly became superstars for major international giants like Marvel, DC, and top-tier French-Belgian (BD) publishers. The technical mastery honed in the competitive Yugoslav market allowed these artists to redefine global comic aesthetics throughout the 2000s. 6. The Modern Resurgence and Legacy
Similarly, pulp Westerns from the Italian publisher Sergio Bonelli Editore dominated the newsstands. Heroes like , Tex Willer , Mister No , and Dylan Dog were staples of the weekly routine. Distributed through mass-market packages like Zlatna Serija (Golden Series) and Lunov Magnus Strip , these characters became household names, often perceived by local readers as inherently part of their own cultural fabric.

Several tracing methods are included in the software to make tracing easy and accurate.
Tracing and Curves - freehand drawing, whatever is drawn is recorded
Lines - Click the starting and ending points of the line
Arcs - Click the start, middle, and end of arc
Curves with points - digitize a curve as a series of points with the software connecting the points with a Bezier smooth curve
Circles - Define circles by either clicking any 3 points on the circle or by clicking the center point and inputting the diameter
To make the tracing easier, the software command window can be moved from the computer screen to a cellphone or tablet which can be placed on the tracing board. Simply click buttons on the cellphone or tablet without going back to the computer. This is especially useful when using large boards or the Jumbo multiple boards.

Most users will find the single boards large enough for their tracing needs. But some users will need large tracing systems especially in the glass, countertop, aviation, and marine industries.
The Logic Trace System has the ability to connect between 2 and 8 boards together for tracing very large patterns. The boards can be in one or two rows and even L shaped. The boards are calibrated so the software knows exactly how the boards are aligned.
For more information on the Jumbo, visit the Jumbo webpage.
A portable rollup is available but should only be used with the 16 button cursor and usually only for apparel pattern making
The Logic Trace Software also has the ability to load an image file or photo, set a scale, and trace the outline using the computer mouse. The same tracing methods are used - tracing, lines, arcs, curves through points and circles. Trace the outline with the mouse and save a scaled DXF, SVG, or PDF vector file. The tracing process is very similar to tracing the pattern on the tracing board except using the mouse and the computer screen.
The Logic Trace Software can also be used for tracing apparel patterns. Trace outlines, sew lines, notches, drill holes, and grain lines.
Save the traced outlines as DXF-ASTM, DXF-AAMA, DXF, PDF, SVG files. Then load the files into any apparel software including Gerber, Lectra, Optitex, Pad System, Tukatek, Clo3D, TukaCad, Bronzwear, Marvelous Designer, Pattern Smith, Smart Designer, Tailornova and more
Also the files can be loaded into any cad or design program including Adobe Illustrator, CorelDraw, Inkscape, and more
