Text size always different when i cut On graphtec CE6000

[JrVinyl 0]

so i know this sounds strange and kind of a newbie question but im really only having problems with this everything else i seem to have figured out on my own and i am cutting jobs with no other problem but this but every time i cut out a text decal the size is never the size i have set in my graphtec studio program i can have it adjusted correctly in the scale window and then when i go to the page window its a different size? maybe by a half in or so am i doing something wrong? is there a different way to size text ?

Have you actually cut and measured the final product? Flexi adds around a 1/4 inch to the measurement but it is for spacing between cuts and doesn't actually cut it at that size. Still cuts at designed size even though it says bigger.
