3.3 Detailed OPOS Operation
3.3.1 Creating the graphic with the markers
1. Create the graphic and contour cut line(s). For easier handling, place the contour line(s)
on a different layer.
NOTE: Do not place contour lines along the edges of graphics or the slightest
movement in the media may result in an unsatisfactory cut. Instead, practice one of the
following techniques:
 Place contour lines just inside the graphics (recommended) (1).
 Place contour lines outside the graphics (2).
 Create thick borders around graphics and place contour lines inside these borders (3).

2. If necessary, make additional copies of both the graphic and its associated contour.
3. Insert a marker to represent the Origin. The marker must be a black square. Each of the
marker’s four sides should measure 2mm but must not be less than 1.5mm or more than
10mm. (1=X-size 2=Y-size.)
