Vinyl Cutting File Preparation
Vinyl cutting file preparation: artwork converted to clean, closed, non-overlapping paths that vinyl cutters and plotters follow precisely.
About this service
Vinyl cutters and plotters follow vector paths with a blade, so the artwork needs to be pure outlines: closed shapes, no overlapping pieces, no strokes that should be shapes, and no details too small to weed. Most artwork isn't set up that way. We rebuild your artwork into a cut-ready file, with overlaps merged, strokes converted to outlines, and tiny details adjusted so they can be cut and weeded.
How we build it
- Closed paths only, with strokes converted to cuttable outlines
- Overlapping shapes merged so the blade doesn't cut through twice
- Tiny details and gaps adjusted to weedable minimum sizes
- Separate layers for multi-color vinyl, with registration marks
