What is the image for? A speed and feed chart as shown or something else?

If just text in the image, you can save the image as a PDF, then try to edit that PDF in Adobe. It will convert as much as it can to editable text. Re-save the edited PDF. Open that in Mastercam and it will give you a representation of your image. Guess thats kinda useless if you have a picture of a dog though :)

With the Raster to vector you have a couple of options.

Have the file sized appropriately before you import it or bring it in and do your geometry creation at the pictures current size and then scale your geometry.

You are stuck with having to manually create everything you wish to have for geometry if you want the picture to be visible while working on it. Saving grace is start with say a bounding box or reference geometry that you can use to generate your ongoing entities from. That way you have a reference to work from. 

Not as nice as some other software's but doable depending on the complexity of what your striving to go after.
