The Export menu makes every file that leaves the Studio: what you print, what you share, and what a machine cuts.

  1. 1

    The lead lines

    SVG of the lead lines and DXF of the lead lines export the pattern's lines at full size, for another drawing program or a plotter. The reversed versions are turned over for foil work.

  2. 2

    Pieces for a machine

    Pieces for CNC / laser… exports every piece on its own, laid out apart, as SVG or DXF.

    The pieces' outlines are hairlines, the way laser software expects to find a cut.
