+          <label>Fill outlines never look nice when embroidered - but it is a lot of work to convert a fill outline to a satin column or a running stitch.
+                 This tool helps you with this operation.</label>
+          <label>It is comparable to the Inkscape functionality of Path > Trace bitmap > Centerline tracing (- and has similar issues.)
+                 But instead of converting raster graphics, it will find the centerline of vector based objects with a fill.</label>
