  • CorelDraw ContureCut and Versaworks problem

    Hi guys,

    Has anyone every experienced this when using coreldraw setting up a print then including ContureCut around the boundaries. For example if it was a simple square boundary or outline @ hairline. When saved to EPS then imported to Versaworks. It may not cut one of the sides where the cut is supposed to be. As if it’s right at the edge of the image.

    This has cheapened to me by using CorelDraw X4, X5, and X6 now. The way I solve it is by drawing a large rectangle round the image to be cut say maybe 2mm larger that the image. of which all the conturecuts will be perfect.

    It’s annoying me now as when I nest with approx 20 images within versaworks. It’s obviously detecting all those images as the boundary of the outside rectangle so it’s wasting media.

    Anyone with any ideas. Thanks 🙂

    Go into Versaworks and set your eps border to 2mm, I think in the settings menu
