MZ SKEETER 4,709 Posted July 2, 2015 What cutter are you using? More info needed. You should be able to rotate to the length. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rpmrpm 32 Posted July 2, 2015 It has to be on the Scap mat to cut, anything that over hangs the design "mat" will not cut. Then you either need to rotate your design to vertical before cutting or select "Cutter" - "Mat Orientation" (also in the right hand "DOCUMENT" box) to change how it sends it to the cutter. After hitting cut tab use the preview image to confirm your cut orientation. Then end of this thread has pics and tips that may help. http://forum.uscutter.com/index.php?/topic/48906-cutting-outside-of-mat-size-used-on-computer/page-2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MZ SKEETER 4,709 Posted July 2, 2015 You didn't state what cutter you have, That is a very large design, I hope that your cutter has enough memory for it...I think I would try it with a pen first, so that you don't waste that much vinyl. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
omarb 0 Posted July 2, 2015 Oh sorry i have the uscutter mh871 34"... I have switched to hoeizontal and vertical and all my lettering is in the mat but still cuts only the width of the machine... ive used winpcsign program and never had a problem with cutting vinyl.

MZ SKEETER 4,709 Posted July 2, 2015 maybe post some screen shots of your Scalp. set up. That cutter is very limited on memory. Can't you use Winpcsign with this cutter? You can also use FREE Signblazer. You are using Windows OS correct? And you are using the correct driver in SCALP? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skarekrow 1,842 Posted July 3, 2015 Are you referring to "Tiling" your vector image to cut it in several pieces? Or perhaps you can break you sign into several other pieces. If so, check the following threads; http://forum.uscutter.com/index.php?/topic/47934-how-to-make-big-jobs-with-a-24-cutter/?hl=tiling#entry384764 http://forum.uscutter.com/index.php?/topic/44144-large-cut-for-wall/?hl=tiling http://forum.uscutter.com/index.php?/topic/49157-i-have-24-cutter-sure-cuts-a-lot-pro-3-how-do-i-make-a-3ft-x-5tf-2-piece-image/?hl=tiling One way to clear the plotter memory is to turn it off then back on.
