Does SCAL acknowledge GSD files????

Post by dublintoo »

I have come across several files that I'd like to download but they are GSD files. I am a newbie to all of this but am having a great time putting a collection of files together. Then yesterday I came across some webpages of GSD files and some of these are really intricate and cute but then I was afraid to download them because I wasn't sure if my cricut/scal program would accept/acknowledge them. Has anyone used these with the cricut/scal program? And if so after I download them, how do I convert them (if I have to) so that my scal program and my cricut machine accepts them? Thanks in advance for all your help!

Hi
No SCAL doesnt recognise GSD but you can convert them.
Theres a few ways, one is having the Robo Craft software.

Hi

You mention Robo Craft Software. Does this software work alongside SCAL? Would you know where I can purchase it? And what version of adobe photoshop do I have to have? Isn't that one of those really expensive software CDs that you use with digital photography? I've seen those in the stores for approx $100 or more. Is this something I'm going to have to buy another cutting machine for? I'm sorry for all the questions..............I'm just really excited to use these and I'm a newbie to boot!!! Thanks in advance again I really appreciate the help!!

Thank you Tingha Treasures for the download. Do I have to get a certain version of photoshop? I just checked them out and found photoshop 7 but there are 2 different versions.......1 for $30.00 and 1 for approx $80.00. Which version do you think I need to get? :roll: Thanks again............
