Would a cutter just follow the overall outline then ? Is there not still the issue of having each vector having its own outline and so the cutter wont just work to the outline? To be honest I might be describing the machine wrong too..it cuts around a shape but also prints the image, so its not just cutting a single colour sheet of vinyl.

Hi Meb, I wanted to have the image sent to printer to print and cut around it. I asked the question a few weeks back, about cut lines , but if the image has lots of outlines, then I am led to believe the cutting machine / plotter, will have a melt down as its not one continuous image.

Hi, Not sure what this is called but I am trying to take various shapes and fix them together to make one new shape. Using the "add" option will create one shape but they then become one colour, what I would like is the two vector shapes to become one vector but retain their individual colour and detail. The idea is to have an image made up of various vectors that are joined to make one continuous outline, when viewed in outline mode. Could someone let me know how this is done? Sorry if that is badly explained, but hopefully you get the drift!

Max, thanks for your comment, very helpful.

MEB, Thanks for the quick reply, I will give that a go. Cheers

Hi, I am creating images to be cut out using a vinyl cutter and, as I understand it, you need to create a cut line around the object. I understand how to add a stroke, which I guess would work in some instances but if I wanted an additional stroke how would I go about it? Or is this not possible at the moment? Many thanks

Hi All, Just bought the software and so far love it...though I can't wait for curved text features. I used to work in the Serif call centre in Nottingham for a short period in the days when they gave it away with PC magazines... Cheers!
