not sure what the beef is but pm if you want to talk it out - it's getting real old with the side handed personal stuff

Definitely will in the next couple of days, thank you for offering, really you've been great help!

actually that was for a couple of our old timers that seem to have something going on - I know I have offended this way before but looking at it from outside the conversation the antagonistic remarks are not helping.  I know when I do that I have a couple of people that will PM me to get my head back in the right place.

the newbie in the case did NOTHING wrong  - just some family bickering for some reason

So pretty much, right now I have connected my cutter to my computer, and it is recognized by Sign Cut Productivity Pro 1 AND Cutting Master 2.0. I use corel draw to make an image and import it to SignCut PP1 as an AI file, and a PLT file for Cutting Master 2 (The image uses vectors). I also changed the setting on my printer to be able to use hardware not made from Graphtec. The problem right now is that when I click "cut out" on SignCut, the cutter just cuts a straight line down the vinyl and nothing else. Any idea what I am doing wrong? Is there other settings that I have to adjust? I just do not understand why the program recognized the cutter, is able to send an image to it to cut, but the cutter just makes a straight line cut until the vinyl roll is out.

Try cutting from Corel, using cut master.

With SignCut it works best with AI version 8 if you have the ability to save to that format. If you have the SignCut plug-in installed in either Corel or AI it will save on the fly for you to the appropriate file format.

I finally fixed it, it was just an origin position problem. Thank you all for your help, I definitely now know where to start for any more questions
