Are the images multi color? In the cut screen, SignBlazer will only show 1 color. You can select more by holeding the Ctrl key down and selecting others in the top left window.

Are you getting any error messages about Bitmap's won't cut... Usually those discs have 2 versions of the files IE. JPEG and VECTOR (cuttable) or a PDF which in some cases is still cuttable. Also check the size it is importing them as....

Try selecting every thing and changing the color. When I tried black it would not change, but when I selected everything and changed to red it worked. Just my 2c

Opens and looks just fine in Flexi...... I would be a little concerned with how small the lines are on the design... I know my cutter would probably struggle with that a little and weeding will take a little finesse also
