Using the Vinyl Cutter


  • Tip: the vinyl cutter will rotate your image before printing. If you were to print an arrow which appeared on the screen as pointing to the right, it would be reproduced pointing not the right in the cutter, but towards the back (inside) of the cutter.

  • Tip: If you want to print text used in an sdraw file, you must right click on the text and convert it to an object (e.g. a curve). Otherwise cam.py will not recognize the text in the .svg files (objects from the .svg file will appear, but the text items are initially treated as something different). Also, you will not be about to perform the logic operations on text items until you convert them to objects.
