Raquel 0 Posted August 16, 2010 Okay...so I am TOTALLY new to this thing, my ex bought a plotter and it came with Flexi and Artcut...we knew right away that Artcut was out. We have NO Books on either program...so here's my problem.... I am desperately trying to figure out how to "clean up" the image once I trace it? I get my image into flexi and trace it out no problem (well I guess somewhat of a problem cause I am here) but I don't know how to "clean" the lines? It's a really curvy design and I've tried messing with all the little commands when tracing it and they result in varying levels of "badness" but how do I clean it up so that there aren't any "notches" in my design and it cuts smooth? PLEASE I am desperate to figure this thing out...yes he's my ex yes I am helping him out with this because it benefits my business as well as his! Thanks in advance for any guidance!
