PointOfExpression 53 Posted April 13, 2013 So in Flexi, I will size the decal that needs to be cut, when I send it over to cut the cut/plot box will open to preview. I have noticed for the past 4 years now it always adds a little to the size? Usually is is .200 added. I never really cared to much until I got an order to where it had to be exact dimension. I figured it was giving it some room for the art boards but come to find out, it is actually making my decals a little larger. Is there a setting in there to where it will NOT change the size after I size it before I send to cut? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MZ SKEETER 4,709 Posted April 13, 2013 it is probably, the panel. change it. It is .1 on each side. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PointOfExpression 53 Posted April 13, 2013 If it is the panel, then why after I cut the decal and measure it with the ruler, its arger than it should have been. Should the panel just allow for room? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MZ SKEETER 4,709 Posted April 13, 2013 you don't state what cutter you are using.. Is your cutter calibrated? Check that. If that isn't it, just contact SAI support, they answer questions fast.... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dee10w 29 Posted April 13, 2013 hiya, yes there is a setting if you go into the production manager, go into set up, there you will find Default Job Properties, click on the 3rd tab which has a picture of a blade holder and you wiil see resolution settings, default is 40.000mm ,,, for a smaller cut you have to decrease to say 38.000 see how that is, it should decrease the cut size a bit of trail and error and patience as there is no specific setting.... hope this helps you....

MZ SKEETER 4,709 Posted April 14, 2013 I'm running a 30" Graphtec, but it is true you can change the resolution and make it smaller sized. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
