Wasatch SoftRIP™
[OPTIONAL FEATURES]
CONTOUR CUTTING UTILITY
|
For most print/cut and standard cutting plotters
This add-on feature makes it easy to drive most digital cutters and print/cut inkjet plotters using cutting paths created in popular draw applications. The Cutting Utility allows users to prepare files in familiar software applications such as Adobe Illustrator, CorelDraw or QuarkXPress. When files are output to SoftRIP, the shape paths are automatically cut on the plotter.
The Contour Cutting Utility processes complex shapes of virtually any kind, and maintains the integrity of those shapes when images are nested or duplicated in SoftRIP. To streamline post-cutting production, the Outline Jobs feature generates weeder boxes at the edges of each job in a layout.
SoftRIP's ability to track register marks between different printing and cutting devices assures a smoother workflow and more accurate registration.
