Question How Do I Do This In Cutstudio?

How can this be done in CutStudio?

here's an example of what I'm trying to do on my shirts

http://www.destructoid.com/elephant/...-VoteOrDie.jpg

Everytime I try to size up the letters like that big in CutStudio it never cuts the vinyl transfer on my gx-24 cutter like that, it cuts it very small sizes and I try the keep aspect function and width 13.5" but it won't come out like that in the pic

I'd appreciate the help and the time to take to answer it will help others who are tying to do the same

see pic below!

i don't wanna be wasting anymore vinyls b/c everytime i send it to the cutter to cut it, it wont cut big like that =/

Hi,

Can you post a pic of of what you're actually trying to cut? Or, if you'd like to send your file to me, I can see better what your issue is.

First of all, did you create your text (if that's what you're trying to cut) in CutStudio, or did you create it in Illustrator or CorelDRAW?

I'll be happy to try to help you if I can see what you're actually trying to cut.

[email address]

What size IS it cutting it at?

I look forward to it.

I'll be going to bed in a while, but I'll take a look at it first thing when I wake up, if someone else hasn't solved your problem already.

dAi,

Did you get my email reply?

I'm pretty sure what you need to do is adjust your line spacing so that it's as wide as it is tall, as I mentioned in my email. Right now you have your line spacing set to 100%, so you get a really tall and narrow overall graphic, but if you reduce your line spacing to, say, 65% (or play so that it's what you like), it will bring your lines closer together, and it will become wider with your height.

Then, once it looks the way you want it to, set your width to somewhere between 10" to 12" depending on the size of your shirt..or more.

Let me know if that took care of your problem for you.

Exclamation Re: How Do I Do This In Cutstudio?

yeah and thanks i'd appreciate the time

it's pretty much the descender baseline size in cutstudio

like you can type one word and adjust it up but once is a message on shirt it tends to create this box in height and width size instead of each Letter to be around 2"

yeah, thanks I think i got it now

i just need to experiment alot and waste alot of vinly

thank God Almighty that im trying them on Samples that I've had from diff. companies =P

even tho signwarehouse and coastal wont give out big pieces to try out like imprintables does =P thats one thing i like about imprintables even tho theyre products suck ...well...atleast most of it in my opinion.

iw 4darks is good

I notice that the "keep aspect" option is selected. If you want to resize the letters to achieve a certain height and width I'd recommend doing each line that you are doing seperately. That way the cutter isn't just making decisions based on open space in the design.

I make these types of slogan shirts all the time and that is exactly how I do it. I do design it in Illustrator first but it can also be done in CutStudio too.
