CutContour layer VersaWork Roland

[Alessandro Sanna]

I have a problem with all V2 softwares.

When i export only the CutContour layer it's ok,

but if i export also print layer the Roland VersaWork don't read the CutContour layer.

With the V1 software it's ok.

It would help to know what you mean by CutContour layer & print layer, like what kind of layer is each of them is, how they were created, & so on.

CatContour is a particoular layer (spot color) for cutting contour.

The machine read this layer like a cutting contour. 

I have a Print and cut Plotter Roland VP-300i  and run with VersaWork software.

So what is the print layer? A Pixel layer, something else?

[firstdefence]

So you have a curve/path that the cutter follows and is a particular colour, something like Magenta and you also have an image the contour runs around that the contour layer cuts out after it's been printed yes?

What format are you exporting to SVG, PNG, TIFF

[Alessandro Sanna]

Yes the CutContour is 100% Magenta spot color.

The print layer can be vector or pixel i try both.

The software read Pdf and ESP files.

With the V1 Softwares i had no problem.

i think it's an export issue.

When i export only the CutContour layer, it's ok.

I used to have a Versacamm and I remember one particular problem with Versaworks. If the PDF contained any transparency the CutContour layer couldn't be read by Versaworks. I mention this if only to eliminate that issue.

Avevo un Versacamm e ricordo un problema particolare con Versaworks. Se il PDF conteneva trasparenze, il livello CutContour non poteva essere letto da Versaworks. Ne parlo se non altro per eliminare quel problema.

Thanks, i try to import a pdf file without trasparency.
