Tutorial for using Print2Cut on existing images

[HeatherM]

I added a tutorial to my blog today showing how to use eCAL and Print2Cut to cut existing images such as photos or dp. This should work with SCAL3 also, but I don't have a cutter to test it with. My tutorial is here.

Thanks for the tutorial. I have been wanting to try this but havent gotten around to it. Plus I really didnt know know it was done. Very good instructions!

This is an excellent way to set things up one time only for a cut. It appears it would work with any cutter with laser registration marks.

Thanks for the tutorial. I have so much to learn.

I’m not sure how to set the paper size in SCAL3 for the Cameo, so there may not be any good shortcuts there other than to print a carrier sheet with the shape you want to cut and then adhere your photo or print over that for cutting.

Thanks for putting this together, Heather. I had a footnote on this on my similar tutorial for the SIlhouette, but it I will link yours as it is much easier with all the steps so well shown.
As shown in my tutorial, you can also scan the image, and trace to get a cutline and use that for a very close fitting print and cut this way. It is a pain on the optical eye machines but really easy as Heather shows, on an eclips or Zing.
