Export the file as .eps and the sp300 should recognize the cut lines.
If you are using colorip 2.2 make sure to have the box marked "process cut path" checked.

Hi.
You can vectorize in winpc letter 12 and 14. It's pretty crude though. Lots of node editing.
You also should be able to use Illustrator to convert the file. Save it as AI version 7 ( I think) a ... |

Myct 630 cuts erratically if I go above 50 for speed.
The vinyl size will be different than actual graphic because of weeding box size.

I have a text with outline I am trying to cut. At some point in the file the cutter goes all the way to the left and cause the machine to stop?
Any ideas>
