4F Tutorial: How to Setup a Print and Cut using PTCreate Pro – Contour Cut
This tutorial will walk you through the basic steps to print and cut a label using the trace image /
contour cut feature found in the Professional version of PTCreate.
4F.1 Choosing a Label Size (Page Layout)
After you activate your software you will be prompted to open or create a new project.
1.
Choose New Project…
2.
Set your page size. Since all die cutting media is 4.25” wide the standard maximum width is
automatically set to 4.25. In this example we have set the size to 4.25 x 4.25 to
accommodate approximately a 4” x 4” label.
Tip!
Set your page larger than the
label size to be cut. This will allow
you to create a bleed around the
label so that you always cut inside
your print and get perfect cut every
time.
