Post by KNIPCHICK »

What have you used on your first page? When you Preview it (magnifying glass with single page), does it look like it will cut?

If you post your file, someone can take a look and get a better idea of what happed. Also, a lot of us prefer layers over pages, since if you need to resize it is much easier if everything is on the same page. HTH

yes preview looks good. Need to watch tutorial on layers, just grabbed a pg because it looked easy. Also made new project with just one page and it still "acts" like its cutting but nothing. thanks for taking a look.

I just opened your attached file and cut it as-is with my baby bug and SCAL 2.038c with no problems. Not sure why it isn't working for you.
