Question

What file format do I need for the cut path?

Answer

Submit your cut path as a vector layer in AI, EPS, or a PDF with vector paths. The cut line should sit on its own layer, separate from the artwork. Raster images will not work because the die maker needs precise mathematical coordinates, not pixels.
