When the Cutting Preview screen indicates that the current layer is to be cut from the Back of the mat, this also determines how to place the matboard onto the CMC. 

• For Additional Information:

• Click Options > Cut From Front to cut the design from the Front of the mat.

• Select Cut From Front Button toggle on the Cut Preview.

• Default Settings: See Admin > Cutting for the default settings for Cutting from the Front or the Back.

Cutting from the Back will cut with the back of the mat toward the operator, and can be selected on the Cutting Preview.

• On the Configurations

• screen the Current Bevel Type dropdown control will display the bevel types in this manner:

  • Cut from the back bevel type names will be displayed with no further label; i.e., Normal Bevel.

  • Cut from the Front bevel type names will be displayed with a Front label; i.e., Normal Bevel-Front of Mat.

If you are cutting an element that must be applied to the front of the mat, such as a V-Groove or Pen design, any openings on that layer will also cut from the front and use the Front of Mat configuration item; i.e., Normal Bevel-Front of Mat.

The Backing Boards are Two Sheets of matboard placed on the CMC behind the sheet of matboard being cut.

This protects the CMC’s metal surface and helps stabilize the mat being cut.

One sheet can be removed when cutting thicker material if needed.
