Hello,
I bought a Rabbit 720 plotter, installed WinPcSign PRO 2018 software.
I did my first lettering tests, everything is ok.
However, I just tried cutting a logo that I vectorized from an image, I did a preview before the cut and everything is fine, it follows the logo contours well.
I start the cut on my plotter and the blade does not follow the logo contour completely.
It adds cuts a bit in every direction!
I wonder where this could come from, from my logo?
Or from a setting on the plotter?
Thanks in advance to anyone who takes the time to help me.
Best regards,
Alfredo

During vectorization, surfaces that do not have the same color were traced by a line that the plotter cuts.
Display your logo in "trace" mode in Illustrator or "wireframe" in CorelDRAW, and check that you have no trace inside your logo. If there is any, you must clean it up before starting the cut to have only the outline of the logo.
I don't use WinPCSign; also check if there is an option for cutting with only "outline detection," which would avoid doing a vectorization.
