Hi Jasen: Who knows why they didn't show up. They were on my trial version as that is the only version I have -- I don't own a full working version of DS and don't plan to since I only own a couple cartridges and much prefer using SCAL for my designs. I only d/l the most recent update of DS because ...

Jasen:

I downloaded the most recent DS a couple weeks ago and it has Winter Woodland and Everyday Paper Dolls on it. Maybe you are looking in the wrong sections?

Hi - not sure if we're talking the same thing or not - but I updated my trial version of the DS software, which put the newest cartridges in the program, a couple weeks ago and have not had any problems using the Cricut.

Sandy:

Hi Jennie: I don't know if SCA1 is still available, but just because you have the smaller Cricut is not a good reason to go with the older program. Scal 2 is a better program with more features to offer than Scal 1. Additionally, scut files created in SCAL2 can not be opened in SCAL1. Therefore you ...

Hi - I use Inkscape to add scores lines - very easy to do. Then I save the score lines as a separate .svg so that I can import it into SCAL as a separate layer. Then to "cut" the score lines, I put the depth of my blade to 1 and the pressure to 1 (or 2 depending on the sharpness of the bla...

Hi: Like Jasen mentioned, I use the Layers function to create separate "pages." I put several design parts in the same design, but on different layers. Then when I go to cut, I just hide the layers that I don't want to cut and keep visible the layer(s) that I do want to cut. For example, I...
