Mike Gondek2 May 12, 2011 9:35 AM (in response to simpson246)Are you mac or PC?
You should have gotten some software with your printer, and would recomend starting with that. Vinyl cutter software can get to be very overpriced. There are some freeware & shareware versions. Do a google search and you will find plenty. I found a NCS MAgiSignplug in for mac here
Anyone have any recomendations, I just used flexi sign pro years ago, adn that is quite expesive is you don't get that with your plotter.

$Alphadog May 12, 2011 10:08 AM (in response to simpson246)I am not familiar with that cutter but according to the website, the design studio does support AI and EPS formats. You may have to save to an earlier version of AI (you don't state which version you are using). Sometimes using AI drawings with fill will create a double cut line. Again I am not familiar with that product.

$Alphadog May 13, 2011 4:59 AM (in response to simpson246)If under the File menu there isn't an import option and you cannot open
other file types, then you are just up a creek. If you can, then get the
AI file in a format that it can read. You may have to upgrade your Stika
software.
