Lasercutting

With the Lasercut option, SOSET Typeset generates automatically the outlines of the stamp for lasercutting. The specifications of the lasercutting lines are set in the laser information section of the Local Preferences in the File menu.

If the lasercutting flag of this product or Printgroup is set to True, SOSET Typeset will prompt you to generate the cutting lines as soon as you update the stamp information. Per graphical object you can set the Lasercutting Color on or off.

The lines calculated by this special laser-option can be edited as all drawing objects in a stamp-design. The following options are available:

  • None means no cutting-lines are being generated.
  • Product Size cuts along the contours of the product.
  • Contour cuts along the boundings of all objects of a stamp
  • Advanced Contour cuts not just along the boundings of all objects of a stamp, but exactly along the contours of all objects of stamps (even logos!). This option is developed especially to enable precise lasercutting.

If the Add cutting lines box is unmarked all the existing cutting lines are deleted. If marked the new cutting lines are added to the existing cutting lines.

Note: For cutting during laser engraving on some flatbed-laser engravers the color-setting in PageWizard must be the same as the cutting color setting in Typeset.
