| 5. | How to prepare artwork for laser cutting? | |
| Preffered software is CorelDraw any version. Elements for cutting and elements for engraving should be placed on separates layers. For cutting elements you need to use only hairline stroke. For engraving only fill with any solid colour. Do not use outline for engraved elements. | ||
| 6. | Can you process any other file format? | |
| Yes, I can use Acrobat .pdf, Illustrator .ai and autocad .dwg files but they will need importing to CorelDraw anyway and this process will make processing order longer. | ||
