Silhouette Studio® V4 | Chapter 9 - Cutting/Sketching

Line Segment Overcut Once a material type is selected, you will find a Line Segment Overcut option that can be turned on or off by clicking on the desired option:
Selecting the “Off” option will have all lines cut normally. Selecting the “On” option will have all straight corners cut with a slight overcut. This option is beneficial for providing cleaner cutting results in the following conditions:
• Cutting thicker/denser material types (such as chipboard)
• Cutting smaller block fonts or sharp-edged images on various material types
The option will have no effect on rounded edges. It is only effective for images containing sharp edges in order to achieve the best cutting results possible under the conditions listed above. Advanced Cut Setting The Advanced Send menu offers several options for specialized cutting with your Silhouette.
Feed Options - The Return to Origin option will simply return the material back to the original starting point after the job is completed. The Feed option will continue to feed the material forward beyond the original point of origin. Layer Sorting - The No Sort option will retain your images as originally laid out while the Group Layers by Condition will sort your images according to any layers that exist in the document. Cut Order Sorting - This series of options allows you to control the cutting order of your job. The No Sort option will not take any special order action and will simply cut your images according to their layout. The Maximize Speed option will set the cutting order to cut the job as quickly as possible. The Minimize Roller Movement option will cut the job according the least amount of back and forth roller movement possible to aid in the cutting more delicate materials where decreased roller movement may be beneficial. The checkbox option for Sort Interior Contours First allows you to control whether the interiors of images will be cut first (checked), or if the interior is simply cut in line with all other portions of the image during the cutting process (un-checked).
