contour cutting twice
Hi All 🙂
I have just had a new Versacamm sp540i delivered and everything appeared fine during install. However this morning the unit has started contour cutting some letters twice. Although the setting is at one cut pass. Bizarrely it cuts the first letter once then the rest twice!
I am using Versaworks 4.0.0
All suggestions would be most welcome.
Many thanks -

Check your artwork. You may well have two identical cut paths one on top of the other. This sometime happens to me when I am sent an .eps file. Don’t know why it happens but the solution is to delete one of the two identical contours.

Phill’s probably right, I have had the issue with Illustrator and can’t solve it, more than likely the files received were made in Illustrator and hence the problem.
What I do to check is convert everything to zero fill and 100% black hairline, any double cuts show up darker than the single cuts and know what to delete. Only draw back is when they are all double cuts so look the same, I always delete a path to see if there is another one underneath in this case.
cheers

Usually from illustrator I think it cuts the fill and then the stroke. As above don’t know why.

Yes it normally is with files from Illustrator, a object with fill and a duplicate with no fill but a stroke. As mentioned previously deleting an object will cure. There is a macro for Corel which can find and delete duplicates or using the find objects command and selecting the attributes to be found, you can delete all of them in one swoop.
