kburk 2 Posted January 28, 2009 Sorry Ken i don't have Corel just Adobe Illustrator CS4 Keith Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kenimes 42 Posted January 28, 2009 Oops, my mistake. Adobe should allow you to go to File, then Send to: SignCut X2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kburk 2 Posted January 28, 2009 Send to? like Export I have looked on line and thought the books but no such luck. My issue is when I open the eps file in Signcut it does not show text. I may just not be saving the eps correctly? thankks I will keep looking. Keith Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kenimes 42 Posted January 28, 2009 When I have been logged in to customers computers with Adobe Illustrator, I have been able to go to File, then towards the bottom of the pop up menu, there is something that is like: Send to SignCut Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kburk 2 Posted January 28, 2009 Ok mabye I should be calling Adobe and find out if that is a add on. I just looked again but nothing like that thanks Keith Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kburk 2 Posted January 28, 2009 No help at signcut.... everytime!! Adobe is going to call back and see if they can find a plugin for signcut. there has to be a easyer way than this !! Keith Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MecH 0 Posted January 29, 2009 You have to have the plug in for Sign Cut...I dont know where it is, because I am not using it yet, but i do know its there...it should have come with your sign cut X2...or check their site...its one of the selling points for it.

TackySmack 0 Posted January 30, 2009 I have CS4 and work with Sign Cut as well. The CS3 plug in should work fine for you as it did for me. Go to AI and click on "File". "Send to Sign Cut" is on the very bottom of the list, under "print". Also, when you save files, click on "save as" and you'll find that you have the option of saving your work in CS3 or CS2, ect.
