denny_w121 0 Posted November 20, 2014 I was just given a cutter and I downloaded the signblazer program. I'm new to vinyl cutting so I'm trying to find a manual that will educate me on at least the basic functions of the program, anything out there or is it mostly trial and error? Dennis W.

slice&dice 2,450 Posted November 20, 2014 Hello Dennis. You'll be thrilled to use SignBlazer, it is filled with amazing features. Did you download it from the USCUTTER website? (hybrid version of UK release, with no trial screen nags) http://support.uscutter.com/index.php?/Knowledgebase/Article/GetAttachment/190/24198 The HELP menu contains a lot of information. Start there. What cutter are you running? How do you plan on using the program? What are your main criteria for cutting stuff? Mostly texts? Open the Library (DRAW menu) and play around with that at first --- it's how I began. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MZ SKEETER 4,708 Posted November 20, 2014 Also keep in mind, that this is, older software that has not been updated for several years. So if you try and import newer versions of vector files, they probably won't work, It works pretty well with older version 8 .eps files. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

slice&dice 2,450 Posted November 22, 2014 Here's a link to download the learning manual. http://www.uscuttersupport.com/downloads/Software/SignBlazer/signblazer_manual.pdf 243 pages ---- "A Seven-Hour Guide" (in Hour 6 the manual indicates how to cut !!! ) Keep in mind that this guide also includes the "Pro" features (HotShot) which are not active within ELEMENTS. But overall, this is really quite an education for me. I never knew there was a manual !!! Thanks Jay. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jay2703 704 Posted November 23, 2014 It was included with the original installation disk along with a Font Guide that illustrates all of the SignBlazer fonts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
