Bionic_ 0 Posted February 26, 2014 Hey!! I'm completely new to this whole world of cutters, and I have a US Cutter Laserpoint II. I need some guidance with the SCAL Pro software (or if anyone can suggest other softwares to use with it). I've been trying to cut this "Paul Walker" quote, vinyl decal for my car, but every time i import an image and try to cut it, it's just a complete mess of overlapping cuts. Is there any way to make the image a solid image and not have all the little random cut pieces in it (if that makes any sense at all) PLEASE H E L P & Thanks!! -Reina Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mb20music 759 Posted February 26, 2014 You might want to try SignBlazer Elements, it is a little more "newb" friendly in my opinion. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bionic_ 0 Posted February 26, 2014 Ya'll are awesome mb20music, jaybird, slice&dice!! I appreciate the speedy responses too! Also, do you guys know how i can "sharpen" the image I've welded? The edges of the letters are all, hmmm how would I desecribe them... choppy, skewed, not straight.. is there a way to line them nicely? -Reina Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
