when i scan a file i get no output into signcut or artcut?
Hi,
i’m really new to the business, or rather on the fringe of it. I run a computer repair shop and purchased a cutter to process my own signage, sale signs, decals, etc.
My problem is this: I can output anything i create from scratch within corelX3 to my sign application through the launcher, works fine and cuts fine.
I scan an image through an HP scanner, into Corel, save the tiff as a CDR
file, when i launch the plotter application (artcut or signcut) no image or outline display.what steps am i missing?? I’ve gone through the corel manual but can’t find a straightforward answer to this process!
thanks in advance and regards from Guam,
Pete

The image would have to be converted into a vector format first…you can’t cut a bitmap image
This would have to be done using a trace package..or if it is a simple shape by redrawing over the scanned image

Yep, what Glenn said.

i got to get down to the nitty gritty of it then i guess!
