I have a customer that sent me a file in pdf and dwg format. When I sent it to laser to cut it only cut out 3 of the several pieces in file. When I delete the three that cut it will not give the option to print. I don't know what is going on. I tried importing it again and it only imported the three pieces that cut. I am at a loss, has anyone else had this problem?

Can you attach or make the file available. Are you printing out of Corel? In corel did you do a select all and make sure the color and line thickness were correct for vector cut?

Besides for color and thickness, it could also be layers.

it could also be layers.

This is my guess...

I finally figured it out with much frustration and mumbling to myself. This simple box drawing in auto cad had 20 layers because EVERYTHING in auto cad has its own layer. Was able to pull what I needed up to top layer and get it to cut. Only took 24 hours to get it figured out. Thank you for the suggestions. Been so busy had not had a chance to be on here much.
