CorelDraw X3 and CutStudio?

[waipahe]

Hi Everyone,

Noobie here! : This is my first post here and I'm really hoping I don't sound too stupid? Anyway here goes....I just bought my first cutter, a Roland GX -24 with CutStudio. Being the noobie that I am. I went and just bought the best (or what I'm thinking is the best) software to do my graphics with. Now I'm wanting to know if the 2 programs will even work together? I know now that I should have done a lot more research before actually buying the software, but it's too late now. Can anybody help me out with this? Is there anyway to get them to work together? Anyway, this is my predicament. I hope somebody can help? As I am 20 pounds lighter do to all the chewing that I've been getting form my wife because of all the money I just spent! :Oops: Thanks in advance! Curt

never heard of it until now so I cannot help you much. But at the beacon graphics site it seems adequate. Good luck..

Yes they will work together. You'll need a plug-in for Corel which you can get from the Roland site. I've got the GX-24 and cut with Corel X3 alot. It's a good combo!
This is the link to the plug-in:

thanks Mikew for the help out! I feel a lot better now.....and so does the wife! I'm to the Roland site to download the plugin now. Hopefully I can repay the favor one day. Thanks very much!

Hey Craig, thanks for your response as well! Yeah, it is pricey and a very good program. But it's only as good as the operator is. So needless to say, I have a lot of studying to do! And no matter where you go or what you do, there's always someone around the corner that is willing to cut your throat if you're not paying attention! Have a great day my freind!

Aloha Replicator, Thanks for the welcome! And the luck.....I'm going to need it! Aloha
