- (CHECK OUT MY OTHER VIDEO TO CUT DIRECT FROM INKSCAPE AND NOT NEED ARTCUT). not being able to find ways of getting my images from inkscape to artcut2009 this is the easiest way and didn't require buying any new soft ware just used inkscape which is free and artcut 2009 which came with the vinyl cutter plotter that I got for real cheap off ebay
i don't know you but I know you found your purpose. You are a great teacher. Thank you.
good vid straight to the point ... no polish .....no mucking round .......this is how its done vid shows what you said it would in english
Still one of the best vids out to date thank yoy
Thank you for doing this video, i was having some of the same problems after buying this cutter/plotter and ive had for about 3 yrs and thought theu sent me a broken machine. Until i finally took some time with it, got working now getting it to weld is a different story still plugging away tho. Thanks again!
Monique Hagans I did a little video of welding font in Inkscape it’s on my channel
@@greenribbonhobbies4816 thank you Darryl m. I appreciate that. Because this cutter has been working me!! Lol
Monique Hagans even just uploaded a quick one how I found a way to cut straight from Inkscape so u can skip artcut all together
Hi there, appreciate the help, years back I used signcut so may be different but just saved it as DXF and had no issues. Worked for embroidery machine too. I'll probably be back when artcut won't work! 👍😎❤️
Hi, I am seeking for help as I got a SeikiSK375T and I can't put it to work. I can not find it on the device list of the Artcut2009, and trying different SK models is not working for me yet. Do you have any advice? I saw you have some video on the same plotter..., but sadly comments are unabled. Thank you in advance!
thankyou for this info it was something i needed to get the ball rolling haha
Hey mate I found an easier way if you didnt already know, thanks to watching this though.. 😉
You do it all in artcut2009.
- Import JPG image into artcut
- highlight Image
- file > image tracing > next > next > tick smooth (yes).
- move image over and you'll see outlined.
- highlight actual image (not outlined)
- Edit > delete
Then scale to necessary size.
Hope that helped, using 1 software not jumping through different ones.
I mainly use Corel draw now or I did another video of how I do it all straight from Inkscape but appreciate the tip maybe can help others that are new to all this 👍
Definitely helped me mate, I'm new to it all.. so happy to share either..
It's amazing how these tutorials help!!
Great video learnt a lot from it, thanks loads :-)
great video thank's for share !!
so saving out of inkscape. .PNG is not even an option under save as. so confused. anyway you can help out?
@avanui awarangi i quit even using inkscape. But i think i converted as png through a site on the internet
You have to "export' to png in Inkscape
How do you turn off the weed border in artcut bro?
I'm happy for you bud, but I need some free cutter software. I haven't touched my plotter in years, and can't remember what I used back then. This seemed a lot easier back in the day.
I did a video where I do it all In Inkscape and Inkscape is free
Big thanks brother 👍
ありがとうございました！ very helpful ! 👍
I have Inkscape which i use to plot cut often. I have already used Bitmap trace and node editied. The issue after saving PNG in Inkscape, opening in paint, saving as JPEG, imported to Artcut, the image is traced and looks like garbage (original). Why not just use Inkscape? The image is better than the one you have retraced in Artcut.
C C I personally prefer Corel draw now this video was when I first got cutter and was only way I could get to work I did learn to cut from Inkscape which did a video on I just prefer cutting from Art cut which works better with Corel draw
This is what's happening to me
@@greenribbonhobbies4816 eu não consigo instalar o Corel draw, sabe me informar se eu possível eu trabalhar usando o inkscape e o articut?
ROFL, was this published on April 1st?
Hi there , this has helped big time . I've noticed when I use this method some images turn out very deformed . This is when I'm in art cut traced image. I'm sure you've seen this fault if so have you got a solution?
Lanah Pukepuke I think the jaggedness comes from the file format this way is less then ideal it was just the only way I could get it to do anything at the time I purchased since all this I started using Corel draw which u can save files as plt which keeps the image quality when you import to artcut
Any chance of a tutorial please mate?
And is coreldraw free download?
Lanah Pukepuke unfortunately not
Lanah Pukepuke u have to buy she software
You've hurt my head with all this crap!
You do realise you can open the image in artcut and also import an then image scan from artcut to do what youve done in 20 mins in 1 second 🤣 I do it all the time from Google images in fact I'm doing right now hence how I found this video I'm looking for best setting to put my plotter blade to
Keep doing the work dude
Youl get there eventually
thank you
What if we don’t have the option of saving in as png file 2:31
me 2
Hi is there a reason this had to be traced? Still learning the softwares.
Karen Broughton N.Z to be honest dunno if needs to be traced it was just all stuff I found online when starting out and pieced everything together cause was only way I could make work but I've since started using Corel draw due to it is way better and images come out way better problem I always had with Inkscape is you can't save as a plt file
Very useful

When I start writing it stop print
When I click cut/plot it just says “an unnamed file was not found”
I made this video a while ago so not to sure I did do a video also on a way to cut direct from Inkscape u could also try but now I use coreldraw just for the ease of things
hi after i press cut , said an unnamed file was not find . can some one help me please? why said that?
I really do not want to offend anyone, but as a professional I have to say that this is the worst way to send files to the plotter. Cutting machines need vector graphics and PNG‘s or JPEG‘s do not contain vector graphics. Tracing is a method to create vectors from a bitmap, but by exporting it to a bitmap png, you destroyed your tracing result. Re-saving it as JPEG makes it even worse because JPEG is a lossy format. With every additional tracing and saving as JPEG you lose information. And then you even traced it a second time in your cutting software ... PNG‘s, JPEG‘s or other bitmap files are not used it the cutting industry. You need to stick to file formats which allow vector graphics like EPS, PDF or AI. All you had to do in Inscape is tracing and saving it as EPS. Then import it in your cutting software and start the job.
K;Rivva of coarse. This way not perfect at all hence why I say in the comments I started using coreldraw at the time of making this though I tried everything with Inkscape and and artcut and this was the only way I could get the ball rolling and as the video shows while it's not perfect it worked and was a start to learning more and as you say in your comment your a professional so you would have better knowledge and programs I assume then most people that are looking for help and myself this was just what worked at the time when I spent like a week searching for help videos and couldn't find any on the eBay printer I got and the programs I had to work with
@@greenribbonhobbies4816 neither mate good work.
Awesome work on the copy and paste Mr BLOWFESSIONAL hope you dont get offended lmfao
@@carlkati32 Copy and paste??
What version of Inkscape are you using? Besides the PNG not being an option even the trace bitmap options are different from v1.0
Stroker396 that was the version available when I made video I use Corel draw mainly now
How much was the speed and pressure. Can you please tell me
Hammad Ahmed I don’t remember what speed and pressure I did that test with pen at but now when cutting vinyl I use roughly 250 -300 speed and 150 pressure but I’m still new to all this so it’s all trial and error
Hello can anyone help me I’ did his steps till the saving the Inkscape image where he says save it as a png but I didn’t see that option can anyone hep
I didn't see that option either.. So how do i save
Did u get any help? I am experiencing the same problem
@@keabetswediau5852 sorry for my late but just press control + shift + E
theres no need, inkscape can interface directly to chinese plotters,convert text to path (under path menu), goto extentions > export > plot....connection settings tab > set your com port then serial flow to none and command language to DMPL. works great
I did figure out a way to do direct after a while did another video how I did it but me personally I still prefer cutting from art cut also started using Corel draw it a little easier
What do i do if it runs half a meter down vinyl? Then starts then once cut is finished it runs back up to top/start position
@@lanahpukepuke8077 did you hit origin button on the machine before starting?
Hello...Is this compatible with any plotter especially yinghe plotter?
How would you rate the cutter? I'm looking at one on ebay. Affordable. I need it to contour cut it says it does
MIJA Prints Boutique I like it it's just the software that's not the greatest if you can work around that it's good
@@greenribbonhobbies4816 thanks!
How do you weld letters?????
Whatever life throws not sure what you mean by weld letter
If you cut a word you type in cursive. It cuts each letter but if you weld it it cut out the word makes it easier quicker to peel.
I haven't messed around much with font but I know what you mean I'm not sure the best way to do it I usually split the nodes and and join but I do need to find a better way because it's annoying when the letter cross each other I know Corel has a weld tool just haven't played around much with font
That would make a good video. If you figure it out. I haven’t had no luck. 👍 and thank you
Whatever life throws what program you need to know how to weld letters in Inkscape?
Thanks bro
I've been commenting on all UA-camrs . See if u will answer me . I have a logo I'm trying to do . But it has 9 colors I'm having problems when cutting it cuts all the line is there a easy way of doing this
Justin P I k ow there’s an easier way to do it but sometimes I’ll just copy the image so there 1 copy per color then break images apart and keep only the pieces I would need of that specific color then puzzle together if that makes sense
Justin P if memory serves me correctly I think there’s a video on UA-cam where the lady shows it and she’s doing it on a Tennessee Titans logo in the video
@@greenribbonhobbies4816 yes I have seen that one . I was just seeing if you did it a different way
Justin P yeah I usually just piece it all like I mentioned in my one comment
Hi is there a way I can send you a pic for you to help me please
Ricona Hylton what u need help with ?

im having trouble with the artcut program, when I got to cut out, I first off don't know what machine it is (I have the same exact one as you) and when I click cut/plot, and then click start, that box just doesn't respond and nothing happens. Is there anything you can do to help me
Panda Rocks In artcut click cut plot click device manufacturer is others device is dmpl
Panda Rocks this video should help near the end ua-cam.com/video/jGdYGypqN50/v-deo.html if your drivers are installed just fast forward video when the person is in artcut
Hi, please can someone tell me how can i cut in just one line ,not double? Thanks!
I personally use vector magic, it is so easy to use and far fewer steps that this
I think it does double line for weeding purposes
