Default Cutting Straight from illustrator
Hey guys. Does anyone know if there is a plugin for illustrator that lets me cut straight from illustrator rather than exporting to my signcut x3 then cutting from there?

You could try setting your line width to .25 and miter limit to 1 and just try printing to it...that's a shot in the dark without knowing more...

I tried doing a search for an Illustrator plug-in, but couldn't find one. I know that Copam has their own forum - US Cutter Community - Index, you can see if some one there knows.
