I recently bought a Roland GX 24 Optical cutter. It is really cool!
It's amazing how accurate it will do a contour cut. I bought this for signage
never thought I would be doing T-shirts but now I can
The question I have.... Is Roland provided it's software called Cut Studio.
In the software you can import a bitmap image, then through a filter you
can adjust it so the image shifts to black then you can extract a contour
hairline around just the image. Will just a little bit of clean up you now have
a contour hairline around the perimeter of the image and not the whole square.
I know I could probably go through the steps in PP or PS save the bitmap
with transparency then import it and contour it. What I want to know is if there
is a way to do this in X5 in a quick step that I don't know about.
I hope this makes sense.
This would be a great feature for CD if it doesn't alreay exist. Right now
I hand draw the outline.
