3.3.7 Cutting the contour

1. Make the layer containing the contour lines visible and printable. Do the opposite with
the print data.
2. Make sure that the origin marker is also defined as a contour. This will be used as the
origin for the cutting.
3. Once you are using the cutting software, it may be necessary to collectively rotate the
contours and markers so that the Origin marker (1) is situated in the bottom left corner
of the cutting area (2) as viewed on the screen. If your cutting software's default
orientation is not set to "landscape," the contours and markers will need to be rotated.
