This section explains how to create cut data for perforated cutting using CorelDRAW 2020. The operation procedure is the same for other versions.

Procedure
  1. Create a new document and draw a new shape or open an existing file.

    In this example, you will create the design shown in the figure below.

    CDR_PerforateData_Select
  2. On the toolbar, click icon_Tool-Pallet.

    The Roland CutStudio palette appears.

    CorelDRAW_OpenPallet
  3. Select an object that you want to apply perforated cutting to.
  4. Click icon_CDR_Perforate.
  5. Select Output Perforated Cut Lines Only.
    CDR_PerforateData_Select2
  6. Click Update.

    Check that the cutting line that you wish to output is shown on the preview screen.

    CDR_Perforate_set
  7. Click icon_Pallet.

    CutStudio starts, and the cut data is sent to CutStudio. The output cut data is always aligned at the origin of CutStudio regardless of the position in CorelDRAW (except crop mark data).
