I have SO MANY gsd files and I'd love to be able to use them with SCA.
Does anyone know if I can convert them to SVG?

You could try this:
GSD >pdf ( I use pdf factory to make my pdf files) open pdf save as jpeg import jpeg to Inkscape, PathObject to Path Path>trace bitmap and save as .svg
A bit long winded and the resolution isn't that good and remember that Cricut as doesn't do dashed lines so you'd only be importing your outlines in say a box template, cutting then scoring by hand, plus unless you use a solid fill template you get the dreaded double lines( have just done a test run!)

I'm on a Mac. Is there a program that works on a Mac that will open a GSD file?
Or do I have to use DH's dreaded PC?

I figured out the answer to my own question - there is NO WAY to open a GSD file on a Mac.

unless you are running Robomaster and using a 'double platform' on your Mac.

But the whole point of my Mac was to get AWAY from windows.
