Easy Cut Studio - Do Not Cut Setting?

[JK Morgan]

Is there some way in Easy Cut Studio to tell the software not to cut a specific image on a sheet. I am doing sticker sheets of different dog breeds and want to put the name of the breed at the top of the sheet. I don't want this to be cut, simply visible, as well as my business name and website at the bottom of the page. I am sure there is a way, but for some reason I cannot find a user manual for this software anywhere. Anyone have a link?

Before sending the job to cut, only select the parts you need. Can create groups or layers to make the selecting easier.

Forgot to tell the Cut Selection only option needs to be selected.

What I was looking for was for part of the print just to print, not cut. I did figure out a way. I can erase the cut lines and that seems to work. Now I have an issue with saving as a pdf as when I do, and I put the file in Versaworks, there is a black outline around every image in the file. I will attach screenshots. I tried saving as a jpg, but every time it shows as corrupted when I try to put it in Versaworks.

If you cut from EasyCut the cutline can be just white or no color.
Why .JPG, why not .PDF?

If you check the screenshot, the one on the right is how it shows in Versaworks when saved as a pdf. It adds the black lines. Doesn't do that for png or jpg, just pdf. Not sure how to change this as I want to export as a pdf.

Unfortunately EasyCut Export filter is not the same as print. When you choose an object as Cut only still shows up when exported, but it does not show when printed.
If installed a VersaWorks Printer, you can Print to it from easyCut, and it goes directly to VersaWorks Queue without (Cut only) Lines.
Or just make Cut layer invisible before Exporting.

I see now, PDF export does not work properly for EasyCut. Was sending a job with VersaWorks printer driver rasterise the image as well, just as printing to PDF.
Seems PNG and TIFF still better than JPG
Use the Cut Line Type options to filter your Cut and print jobs. Works for raster Exports or for print.
Do not need to delete anything. For PNG, TIFF, JPG or print the cutlines will be hidden, for PDF export, just make the cut layer invisible.
