Flexi Problem

Recommended Posts

OK I am running a graphic and when it is cutting it is going over each cut twice.... Is their a setting that I am missing? I have passes set to 1 ... but no matter what I do it still is running two passes ........

Thanks

Check and make sure there isn't a hidden layer.  That happens all the time to me when I make a text and use envelope tool and don't convert it to curves in Corel Draw then when I take it to flexi it sometimes cuts the same font 4 times.

When I imported it into my Flexi,it said"open paths detected..would you like them closed?" I have no idea what that means.

Anyhow,when I went to cut,it was showing 2 layers. You had to select the white layer to cut one,the black for the other. I went back to flexi, selected the graphic,color BLACK only,and there was just one layer to cut.

Don't know if that helps any. You have a different version of Flexi than i do.

I am at home now and can't try and cut it, but there's definitely 2 different layers in about 1/3 to 1/2 of the file.  Is this going to be one color?

One thing I noticed. The way it is vectorized,that inner part of the circle is gonna cut right through the poor dog's nose and I don't see any way around it.I've had that problem before,and yet to have a problem...unless somewhere,in some far off place,the vinyl shrinks a bit.

Yeah I noticed that banner too ..... I am either going a. take the dog out and redraw the circles    or send it back to the company that vectorized it for me ..  ..  but i think i got it ....

thanks for everything though
