Reading your tutorial made me wonder whether scans of the orignal parts could
be vectorized using Inkscape (Inkscape includes an automatic raster-to-vector
converter). The resultant SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) file could then
maybe be converted to a “flat” LDraw file. One would then proceed normally as
outlined in your tutorial.

Hi Mike,
Yes, I considered this possibility in the beginning, but I was not convinced by
the vectorization process. One key issue is that silk-screened parts are far
from perfect (misprints, color registration problems...). I found that cleaning
all these defects would probably be harder than the manual vectorisation
process.
And would remain the issue of a flat pattern that need to be cut along former
polygon boundaries... but I am working on this one!
