Editing the 90 Degree Blade Cartridge Configurations

Editing the 90 Degree Blade Cartridge Configurations

  • The 90° plastic green blade cartridge is designed to cut 90° bevels on standard 4-ply matboard.

  • The 90° plastic green blade cartridge is labeled 90 on the end.

The Configurations Screen is Where to Adjust The Configurations of Bladed or Non-Bladed Cartridges

Cutting from the Front will cut with the face 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.

    • V-Grooves have their own selection on the list.

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.
