Re: Sure Cuts A Lot 2.0 For Windows

LOVE LOVE LOVE the update. Best $30 spent in a long time. Tip for those having trouble welding your words.

Re: Getting Message "Cutting Complete" BUT Cricut did not cut!

Re: pdf to SCAL via Inkscape

I think I figured it out! On the "trace bit map" window there is a check box for "remove background". When I check that and save, everything is good. I am totally a "click until you figure it out" kinda gal. THanks again!!

Re: pdf to SCAL via Inkscape

I am still not following. Where are these settings? I can see my shape in Inkscape just fine. When I try to import into SCAL, I get a red box with nothing in it. There is no red X. What settings do I need to change in which program?

Re: pdf to SCAL via Inkscape

I am having the same problem where the PDF files I am importing...and even simple shapes I draw...are importing as a red box with nothing in it. I am being dense, I can't seem to follow the instructions to get my shapes to show. What settings am I changing? In My Computer, Inkscape, or Adobe? Any he...

Re: Response from SCAL on buying program

I was also worried that I didn't get my activation email, but like others said, it went directly to my junk email. It really did come within a few minutes of ordering it. I have also had great luck and quick response for my questions. I love SCAL!

Re: SHADOWING A CUSTOM DESIGN

Thanks for posting this reply. I am new to SCAL, that is a very cool feature. Seems a lot easier than using the Design Studio!
