I Have a sign lab file, larger than my plotter, that i need to cut. A friend has a 24" plotter but has corel draw to cut from. What format do I need to export my sign lab file so I can open it in Corel & cut it? Also, are there any little quirps that i need to know about corel?
Any help in this matter would br appreciated.

Thanks

Hi John...

You're gonna have to export it as an AI file. It's the only way that I found (throught this board - by-the-way) for it to work correctly.

Good Luck!!

why not just tile the graphic?

In signlab you can manipulate completely where you place the seam.....

John...It shouldn't be a problem, using either EPS or AI. BUT remember to "convert text to curves" or "convert text to outines" or whatever it is called in SignLab. That way if the other guy doesn't have one of the fonts installed on his computer he can still cut.
