PRINT + EMBOSS + CUT
Posted: March 10th, 2019, 4:17 pm
Hi,
I have just started working with my new 24" platinum with the 2 heads. I'm getting stuck in working out a couple of things and hope someone out there can help.
What I am trying to do is print with reg marks, then emboss (fold lines, in my case) and then cut.
SCAL 5 Pro:
I have imported 3 files: the image I will print (png) / the die lines (illustrator.ai) for embossing with the emboss tool / and the die lines (illustrator.ai) for the cut
So I have 3 layers in SCAL.
I cannot seem to figure out how to assign to each layer whether it should be the cut layer or the emboss (pen tool in SCAL) layer
Also, how would set the software to I perform the 2 operations during one session - first embossing and then cutting.
Then once these are assigned, what are the next steps/settings?
Thanks very much.
