    How do I trim (an make it actually work)

    You could be dealing with a bad shape. It happens. Sometimes I need to create a small contour out, then back in again to recreate the shape, just to get it to cooperate. The file from Brands of the World doesn't appear to have the problems you're having. You may want to use it instead. http://www.brandsoftheworld.com/logo/311
  2. The other nice thing with cutting directly from Corel Draw is that you can share your printer and cut from anywhere.
  3. Posted in another thread...we use a different cutter but may work the same... We've been cutting from Corel Draw for a couple of years now with no problems. We're using X3 and a Roland Camm-1 Pro cutter. All you need to do is add your cutter as a printer so that you can select it in Corel Draw from the print menu and then set up your page accordingly. Our standard cutting page is 3200mm Wide by 340mm High. This is good for 15" rolls of material. You can change the height as needed per roll. Try to add an extra 10mm to whatever size your roll is for the rollers (so our artwork doesn't exceed 330mm high for a standard 15" Roll). make sure everything you want to be cut has a hairline outline on it. You may need to make sure there are no fills in the artwork. Line up your artwork to the left of the page. Then just set up your printer properties to accommodate the size of your page and cut away!

    Corel Draw X3 how-tos

    Use Contours instead of outlines whenever possible. Outlines are the devil.

    Text to fit in Image - Corel Draw X3

    I would probably create a circle the same size as what you're trying to fit to, line it up, and use that (opposed to trying to fit the text to the odd shape). Much less hassle this way. Then delete the circle when you're done.

    Corel help

    Is this for all objects? If it's a certain object, could it be locked?
