When using vector mode, it is necessary to design your job to give the intended
result. Objects and text should be unfilled and drawn with the thinnest possible
outline (other than zero), as shown below. A .001 inch (.025 mm) is
recommended.

Combined
Combined mode is used when you want to incorporate both Raster and Vector
functions in the same job setup. When you are in Combined mode, all Raster
operations will be performed first, with the Vector operations second.
Note on Vectors:
If you are in Vector or Combined mode, all thin lines will be
vector cut! This can be disconcerting because even if the lines are not visible in
your artwork they will still cut. Usually, this happens when incorporating a
clipart image that has hidden lines that are not readily apparent. Please refer to
the
Quick Start & Easy Setup
section of this manual for an illustrated explanation
of how this can affect your work.
In addition to speed, power and frequency, there are two additional parameters for
vector mode:
Slow Cutting:
Slow Cutting
reduces all speed settings by ½. For example, a speed setting of 10
without Slow Cutting select will move twice as fast as a setting of 10 with Slow
Cutting selected. In essence, Slow Cutting provides an alternative set of speed
parameters that are ½ the speed as the standard settings. Slow Cutting mode will
most often be used for very slow cutting applications when the standard settings
are too fast. Most users will rarely use Slow Cutting mode, but it adds an
additional mode of operation for unusual or demanding applications.
