3.10.1 Setting Up an Array of Repeats
• The QR Cut process involves enabling a Page Marks setting which will be covered in Section 3.10.2. At the
time of this writing, SignMaster Pro 3.5 does not allow Tiling in the Contour Cut Wizard window when this
setting is used. Therefore, if you need to set up an array of repeats, please use the following method
instead:
o In the main window, set the Drawing Area to match the printout dimensions you’ll be using.
o Import (or design) the image for the contour cut. Add a contour cut for your raster or vector image.
Refer to Section 5.01 or 5.02 for instructions. Arrange the traced design in the upper left corner of
the Drawing Area:
o Select the image and its cut line and go to Arrange>Tile Array tools: A new window opens with
options for the number of rows (Horizontal) and columns (Vertical) and their corresponding
spacing:
• Note that the raster images will not appear as you create the repeats, but will appear in those repeats upon
clicking on Apply. At this point, the original image isn’t part of the overall selection so use Ctrl+A (or
Edit>Select All) to ensure everything is selected and then drag to the approximate middle of the Drawing
Area (this seems to work better, at this time, than using Center inside the Contour Cut Wizard):
