  1. I've recently bought a mac and wondered what is the best software to use with us cutter pcut ct630 cutter. i was using flexistarter on windows but its not compatable with mac mavericks anymore, shame. and most of my cuts were done on flexi and can't transfer them now :(

     

    so its a matter of starting fresh

     

    i don't really want to run windows on a mac i.e parallels.

     

     

    any software recommendations would be great please, even better were to find 


  2. I'm using a creation pcut ct630 with flexistarter 8.5 I've been cutting vinyl with no problem for weeks. But all of a sudden today I'm sending my design from flexi to my cutter but no response.

    First it says holding then counts up to 100% on flexi but no response from cutter

    Any ideas


  3. im new to flexi and the vinyl cutting industry only been cutting one colour jobs to start and fancied my had at multiple.

    I have a design which is just in outline view. and want to input two colours and cut them separately then piece together ready for heat pressing.

     

    any information or input would be great, im a quick learner


  4. I recently watched a great tutorial video, amongst other things one part stood out for me. had the ability to change a bad bitmap image into a perfect bitmap ready for cut in just two or 3 clicks. it had the bitmap toolbar option at the top but I cant find it on my version?

     

    I have flexi8 starter version 8.62  


  5. im new to all this so bare with me. I have a design that my sisters son wants on a t-shirt. long story short after I trace bitmap the image I just cant get it to look sharp enough i.e square boxes have curve bits etc its a one of those eat sleep designs. is there an easier way than deleting and adding nodes etc

     

    help much appreciated

     

     


  6. So it's all done on the cutter itself, doesn't matter where my design is positioned on flexistarter 8 it will alwYs cut from the starting point I set on the cutter?


  7. hi im new to all this vinyl cutting.

     

    probably a noob question but how do you set your blade position so you know where its going to cut exacly on the viny.l im having to guess lol.

    sometimes it just shoots right to the end and hits them red buttons and does nothing.

    im using a pcut ct630 cutter with flexistarter 8

     

    help much appreciated peeps
