I have a Laserpoint II and using SCALP 3 . I have created a few tshirt designs and I need to print them with registration marks and cut them out. I used Illustrator to create the images and have saved them in pdf, svg, and jpeg. I cant get them to import into SCALP as just a picture to do a contour cut. The image has all the nodes and some of the colors don't look the same. All the nodes show up red and it appears the cutter will cut all the strokes. I only want the outline of the images. Is there a way to just import the image and cut around the image without it changing the colors? Any tutorials I can watch? Thanks in advance!!

Thanks everyone for your help, a little update- Everything is cutting fine, I have to revert anything I create in CS5 to Illustator 8 to make it cut. Most everything has cut ok. I still have the problem of Flexi crashing my mac. I don't get that one. Also sometimes it will start cutting before I hit the SEND button. Kind of weird but at least most of it works fine. I wonder if buying the full verson of Flexi would make a difference?? I guess that's a $ 1000 question!!!!!

I did try that, I saved it in CS3, and CS4 but still nothing. It acts like it wants to import the file but then the workspace stays blank. I don't get an error message or anything like that. I just don't get it.

Ah ha!! Thanks!!

OK, forgive my ignorance but I don't see how to revert back to save as an older version of CS. All I see is save as .ai, .eps., .ait, .pdf, .fxg, .svg and .svgz. i honestly don't know how or where to look to find the older version.

I did not know that. Thanks I will give it a try!!! Thanks again

I will give that a try, but isn't a .eps or .ai file the same reguardless? Thanks

Yea I can use flexi and cut just fine, I just cant seem to import anything from Illustrator. If i design it in Flexi, it will cut ( assuming it won't crash ) I don't know what other settings or ports I would need to change for Illustrator thanks

I just bought a Laserpoint 24, Flexi Starter and the Keyspan. Everytime I try to Import a eps or ai file to Flexi it never shows up. It show the time box and it is importing something, but it dosen't show on screen. I imported something once but it was some weird lines and shapes, not what i selected. I can design in Flexi and cut just fine just not import. I am using a Imac. It has also crashed 6 times in the last week while in Flexi. My Imac has never crashed before. Any suggestions would be great!! Thanks
