help please with sending a job to winplot in coralX3?
Does anyone know why sometimes when you send a job to winplot in coralX3 why it generates cutlines down the image that shouldn’t be there?
Always works fine from coral 12. :nag4: -

X3 seems to do this at random when exporting to ai files. I’ve tried all sorts to cure it, but as I say, it doesn’t always do it.
Weird, no?

You’re right Andy it’s weird. I am wondering if it’s a bug in the winplot???

I don’t think its WinPlot, Dave Rowland and I have had some discussion on this regarding the AI export from X3 and although nothing diffinitive has been sorted, It appears that drawings from earlier versions of Draw (V11) opened in X3 and exported to AI in some cases only have lines in the file if imported back into Draw and other programmes. This is a different issue from the one which is sorted by clicking off ‘simulate complex fills’ etc on export. EPS/cmx export/import doesn’t do this and a workround for this is – export as eps – import back into Draw – then export as AI. It appears that the export to eps/cmx sorts the problem.
Assuming you are referring to the same problem as Dave then it has been reported to Corel in Canada (but only recently) and I’m sure it will be addressed at sometime.
Hope this helps a bit

Alan,
I am wondering if when the job is sent to winplot it might be converting the file automatically to an A.I. file for cutting. I Know where your coming from on the import and export scenario, which makes me think this same thing may be happening when sent to winplot???
Annoying when it happens!Thanks

Could be Karl, I have Winplot here and I can reproduce, fix is the same though, export as eps and open that in Winplot or export and reimport into Draw, save for future use with the Winplot button in Corel. Strange behaviour though.

if the file is too large, the postscript interpreter (eps) will break the file down into smaller sections, which may involve cutting a letter in half, so a normal printer buffer can handle it. If you break apart any graphics into small sections and convert any large paragraphs of text into graphics and break them up into individual words this should sort the problem.

Hi, converting from corel 10 but using x3 to convert to AI, I know it is only a simple thing, but I have found that if an outline is exported when it is filled with colour, even white, that these rouge lines form, so I make sure there is no fill and just outline and that works.
