9.06.2 PNC With a Contour Shape Larger Than the Printed Image
In
Section 9.01
, two other PNC applications were shown. In one case, an outside contour will be cut. In the
other, an alternative shape is added, such as the tag shape shown below.
You want to remove the cut line on the cow, which was created during the pixel trace, so that the only line
cut will be the shadow line. To do this:
Make sure the raster image (the cow, in this example) is on a higher layer than the shadow to be cut.
Select both the cow image and the shadow and apply the
Weld
function from the
Magic Toolbar
. The
internal cut line disappears leaving the original raster image now filling the
Shadow Layer
:
The cutting process proceeds as described in
Section 9.04
.
In the other case, with the tag shape around the original traced image, the process is exactly the same.
Select the tag and the cow image and apply the
Weld
function from the
Magic Toolbar
:
