A cad-cut trick I just learned
Frog:
That sounds like a great solution from someone who had the same problem as me. That's exactly the type of thing that we learn from fellow workers, bosses, and now, especially for newbies and those of us on our own, from fellow tradespeople on these forums!
That's why I was so jazzed and jumped in so deeply when I first learned of this resource back in '05, a latecomer by many's standards.
But otherwise, where else would you get these tidbits?
Going from a large shop environment to working on my own was a huge change! Long live the boards, eh Jill?

Here's the link to the commercial macro I (sometimes) use.

Below is one of the choices you can produce. I used the samples I posted for Jill's font search to simulate Andy's ad-hoc name placement.

Guess I should have posted the wireframe view, huh?
just in case anyone is wondering,
No, those weed lines don't cut THROUGH the text.
They STOP right at the cut lines.
Frog:
Thats the third product I've seen using a variation of Easy Weed, EZ Weed. Easyweed, etc, lol!

A good trick with weeding detailed vinyl is to roll up the vinyl first throw it in the freezer for a bit and pull out, the cut lines will actually shrink a bit and the lines open up.
As for trying to spot the cuts on thermal film the best way is to work with a light almost at the level of the table and look at the film from as steep of an angle as possible.
