VersaWorks Cut

[swarnes]

Hi,

I saw on another thread about Versaworks cutting contours first, then the perf cut as second step, I cannot seem to be able to do this, any advise on it please?
I'd like to cut all the contours first, then the perf cut second, Every setting I have tested, it cuts the contour, cuts the perf, then moves to the next image.

Thanks

Here's how I would approach it: Set Versaworks to print marks and return to origin after print. Print and cut your contours. Run the job again to cut the perforations.

You could also layout the full print width in Illustrator first, and then print and cut.
Be sure to organize the contourcut and perf paths in the layers panel, in the order you would like them to cut.

I've never had it not do it that way. What version of VersaWorks and which printer are you working with?

If i did it like this would it cut the contours again?

Latest version of VW

You would need to load 2 separate files into VW, one with Print and Cut, and one with Perf only. Make sure the page size and alignment are identical in both. Layout both files identically in VW. Print and cut the one, then reregister to do the Perf cut.
