Hi,

regarding transfer of images to SignCut-X2 from CorelDRAW or Adobe Illustrator or Inkscape, we do recommend the use of the quick-link named "Send to SignCut".

As menthoined above the image is then opened in SignCut-X2 in the wireframe mode, which makes it easier to analyze what has been transfered.

As descibed above the image may consist of dublicated contours and you may just intend to use one of them. Normalwise two different contours has different colours of one of them may have a fill colour and the other just a contour colour? If it is like that those contours should be represented by two colour separation buttons. You have them at the right side of the working area. Click one of them and the contour represented of that colour will be shown.

If the contours have the same colour you can use the Object tool to deactivate the contour lines that you don't want or you can switch colour on one of the contours. Read the built in manual to find out how to do that.

Or you just change colour before the export from the layout software.

Hope that answer did make the situation for file transfer to SignCut-X2 some more clear!

There is also a number of videos on or web-site that can be useful to watch.

Hello,

I'm doing the support for SignCut-X2. If you do not have it you can download an evaluation license from our web-site "Download Free Trial". The URL is: Welcome to SignCut-X2 (sc-x2)

Follow the precedures described in the email that arrives. After installation, click the cutter-button or the menu option "Settings/Cutter".

Choose Manufacturer and Cutter (GX24)
Then you will get the following information ubout how to set up the plotter for SignCut-X2:

"Settings for Roland GX-24:
Rotate: <Off>
USB-connection require install of windows printerdriver (following the plotter).
Choose it in the device listbox and
make sure the cutter listbox shows the same cutter."


I do recommend a USB connection as it is the most simple way to get it up and run. Try that. If you need some more help, visit our WEB-site. There you will find the FAQ and a pay-service for quick help and else. You just pay when we were able to solve the problem you have.
