what cutting software are you useing with your vinyl cutter? Corel is only design software, not cutting software. Your vinyl cutter when connected correctly shows up in your device manager, not as a printer. Are you wanting to cut vinyl or just print designs?

what cutting software are you using? Corel is not cutting software and only a design software.

ALL CAPS turns people off real quick!!! ALL CAPS means your yelling!!!! And I don't like to be yelled at. I will never reply to anyone that uses all caps, whether I have the answer or not. It's computer etiquette.. and my opinion.

you are correct., they probably did not!!! and will sooner or later get nailed for copyright infringement. There are thousands out there. Do your own work and take pictures of it. You don't want to be selling what everybody else sells anyway. That is only a pricing war. You want unique and different. That is what people are looking for. New ideas. New designs.

download www.inkscape.org Vectorising in Inkscape SolutionThis walk through explains the basics of vectorising in Inkscape. Step 1) Import your image. Click File>Import, find your file and click OK. Step 2) Select the image, go to the top of the screen, click Path>Trace Bitmap. Step 3) The Trace Bitmap menu will then open. Here you can select how you want your image vectorised and adjust the settings. You can also generate a preview. Once you are happy with the preview click OK and close the Trace Bitmap screen. Step 4) Now you will have your new vector image and the old raster (bitmap, jpeg, gif etc) image stacked on top of each other. Seperate the two and delete the raster. Step 5) Play around with your new vector image!

are you starting far enough to the right edge to get it on your vinyl, and hitting the origin button? Guess I'm not to sure of what you are saying, It is cutting the whole design from one edge to the other edge? so your design is actually 24" wide

possibly post some pictures of your cutting screen, maybe someone can see something, that is not right then.

guess referring to this, been around awhile http://www.cafepress.com/ovalstickers

My machine is Cutting Pro also, So it is the Cutting Master software that comes with it. Actually for someone who needed THAT big of machine and all of that stuff, and was just starting out, I think would be a good deal. But the machine is overkill in my opinion.

why would you want our images? You NEED to come up with ideas for your own designs. Not copy from someone else. Am I understanding this correctly?

I make them from just stretching a circle...not real design. put any message in it, any font. . any size. I guess I call those "MY designs. LOL

go into the default job properties at the top left corner of the cut/plot screen and find PACKET SIZE, whatever is there change to 1000KB, put the curve quality to medium, Click apply and ok, I have versions 8.5 and 8.6, So to find it in yours might be a bit different. Maybe that will help.

nice job

have you tried backing your blade in? As I just showed someone else, take the blade holder out of the carriage, and cut a piece of vinyl. It should not be cutting into the vinyl backing. If it does, blade is out too far. Give it a whirl. See if it helps.

great glad it worked out. it does not take much blade at all to cut vinyl. So just barely see the blade. Glad to help

Take the blade holder out of the carriage and put the blade holder in your hand and cut across the vinyl. If the blade cuts into the vinyl backing the blade is out too far. And it looks like it is out too far.

did you purchase the cutter recently? Is it a new cutter? Have you tried a new blade? What do you have the blade offset set at?
