CutContour won't show up in VW

[john1]

Hey guys, For some reason my spot color CutContour isn't showing up in Versaworks.

I am exporting as a EPS and even tried a new document with a no fill shape with a cut contour line and it didn't show up as "dancing ants" either, Just a pink line in VW.

Any ideas?

uncheck the convert spot color box...once exported it is no longer a spot color which versaworks needs to differentiate print vs. cut.

yup

Tried that, same exact results. I created another new document with what i need to print and still the same.

Using Corel x6 and the latest VW

has this only started happening once upgrading to X6? maybe your spot color isnt set up correctly

i know with X5 that if you don't use the spot color in the pre-loaded roland colors it wouldn't show up.

I tried to create a spot color like i have in previous versions of Corel and it wouldn't work.

Well, finally got it. I had to go into the Roland folder through Corel and use that spot color vs the spot color CutContour i pre-made.

Mike is spot on!

Thanks guys!
