Hello I am trying to get my creatin cr630 to work. I have now got it to draw text, but i still can´t get it to draw drawings and logo.I can import drawings to "flexisign" but can`t send it to "produktion manager".
Is there anyone who have a solution for this.

Well, cutters cut/ plot vector files made up of lines and arcs, so raster images or logos needs to be vectorized from pixels to lines and arcs so a cutter knows where the heck you want to cut.

Corel Draw, Adobe Illustrator, and InkScape are all good design programs that allow you to vectorize raster images, or you can find someone who knows what they are doing, and have them do it for you. .eps and .ai are the standard vector formats. I have talked to people in the sign industry that have been doing this for several years, and they still outsource their vector projects to someone who knows how to do it.

Flexi has as good vector tools as the programs mentioned above and has trace abilities. Your program can create vector files from raster images but you are going to have to learn how to do it.

Flexi Sign will vectorize, but if you have Flexi Starter, it will not.

 

[korsvang]

thank you. I do have Flexi sign 7,6

ok in order to get your file into flexi you have to go to - File menue select import then chooose the bmp or jpg you want to vectorize. then once it imports it you have to select it, then go to your bitmap menu select vectorize then bezier depending on the complexity and quality of the image it should work prety good you might have to use your node editing tool to clean it up a bit hope this helps
