Does anyone have good ideas for copying shapes onto fondant?

I've rolled out a piece of fondant (like cookie dough) and want to cut out the "Nike Swoosh" shape. I've not good at freehand shapes, so I printed a copy of the "Swoosh" off of the internet. Now I can't figure out how to transfer the printed copy onto the fondant so I can cut it out.

I'm trying to think of this like copying a pattern onto a piece of fabric, but it's not quite working.

I'd be super grateful for any ideas you all have!

Thanks

Cut it out and use it as a pattern. Cut around it with a knife of some sort. That works for me...

just lay the photo on top of the sheet of fondant and then trace around the lines of the image (on top of the paper) with a toothpick and it will leave an impression in the fondant.....enough to follow with an exacto knife!!
