I welded together some letters and saved the file. When I reopened it, they were no longer welded. Am I doing something wrong? TIA! Jill

I went into something that I KNOW was welded together. It was not. I rewelded it, did a "Save As" and closed SCAL. When I reopened it, it was not welded. Any ideas?

never heard of this problem before, maybe an email to Todd is in order. I hope someone else can help.

I too have had the same issue, I thought that it was my error...

What exactly do you mean by "not welded?" Was the Weld box unchecked? Had the letters moved and were not touching anymore? When you did a preview, they didn't show us as welded?

I don't weld much in SCAL, but I tried it and had no problem

I had all of the welded boxes checked and even made a cut where it was welded. Then I closed the project. The next time that I opened it, all of the welding boxes were unchecked, it was not welded in print preview and it cut as unwelded.

I emailed support and I got the response that my letters were not touching so it would not weld. However, this is not true. My letters are touching. They HAVE to be because the first time I cut it, the letters were welded. When I reopened the file, the letters were still touching but NOT welded. It does it with every font file that I have saved. Interestingly, it does NOT do it with the dingbat files that I weld. I sent another email so hopefully I will hear something soon!

DUH! I think that I figured it out. I was clicking on each letter to weld them together (like in Cricut DS). Then I reread the instructions and saw that you click on the entire word and push weld. I tried that and so far it is working. I KNEW there had to be an easy fix.

glad you got it working
