Stupid Question - Help...

Hi... I'm just starting to get my little on the side vinyl cutting business going... Nothing too big, but I ran into a problem & can't figure it out...

I don't have the time or the funds to make a sample of all of the designs I have made & can make. I wanted to make a small catalog of sorts to show people the designs in jpeg form... But most of what I have made, I have created in SCAL 2 & now I can't find any way to actually print out the image so people can see it before they order. What can I do about this??? I can open the ones I've done with inkscape, but not with SCAL.

I'm terrified that i'm going to get stuck re-doing them all in inkscape first--- I sure hope I'm wrong & there is a simple way to do it... Any help or advice is GREATLY appreciated...

Thanks so much
Tanya

Craft Edge has a more or less Beta version that can export bmp and png. Some people have reported problems with it, but I haven't had problems. You can download and install it, export your images, then if you do have problems you can go back to the officially released version. HTH

Thanks Heather... I'll try it...

Can you take a minute to tell me how to export once I have it downloaded?

also, if I am one that does have troubles, will it be easy to switch back?

thanks so much for your help...

If you want to export in SCAL2 just go file then the export option is right there in that column :D

Thanks so much JoAnn... ;)

I just noticed you're from Timmins... Very cool... My husband is from Ontario too (the London area)... I lived there for 6 years in the London area / Sarnia area & in Owen Sound... I loved it & miss it... But I missed my home (Utah) too when I was there... They both feel like home now...
