Cutting from the Back will cut with the back of the mat toward the operator, and can be selected on the Cutting Preview. Configurations cut from the Back will only display the bevel type name with no further label; i.e., Normal Bevel. 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. |

Cutting from the Front will cut with the face of the mat toward the operator, and can be selected on the Cutting Preview. Configurations cut from the Back will only display the bevel type name with no further label; i.e., Normal Bevel. 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. So if you are having problems with a Normal Bevel cut on the same layer as a V-Groove, make sure you select Normal Bevel-Front of Mat to edit the configurations for that opening. |
Place Matboard on the Board
Place the matboard on the CMC with the front of the mat facing the board when cutting from the back and with the front of the mat facing the user when cutting from the front.
