Hello Everyone :)
I'm not super technologically savvy, I probably only know enough to get myself in trouble ;) I found this thread by doing searches, as I'm having the problem with my DXF files coverted to GSD files in using one of the aforementioned digital craft cutters (the Silhouette, to be exact, manufactured by Graphtec and using the Robomaster software also mentioned above).
I'm interested in any fix to get these files to cut properly once they are in GSD format. I've contacted QuicKutz already, the company who has contracted Graphtec to make their product, the Silhouette Digital Craft Cutter, and I'm guessing that any change on their end, if even effected, would be super slow, at best. This seems to be the way things go when big corporations are involved.
Wondering if the decision had been made to possibly include a "save as GSD" in another version of Inkscape. I can't really tell by following the thread as I'm not sure who is involved in actual Inkscape development here (Ted? Aaron?) I'll check the Inkscape site again next, but I don't recall finding anything on their site about it under the FAQ's yesterday.
So glad I found this thread as I understand the problem (albeit in a techie unsavvy limited fashion) better now ;)
Thanks for whatever information anyone can provide! Cindy

Hi Aaron
I will search the archives tonight as I have no way of contacting Kees. I think I might be able to write/modify a program to log serial/USB port activity on Windows computers. We could then translate the commands into a Linux program, this would give people the option to run the cutters from Linux.

Speaking as one of those cutter users that Aaron and Bibi were referencing (tho' I am NOT afraid of my computer! Nor programming, etc., hence my being here! lol), I think the majority of the vinyl cutter users in our circle use Windows XP. I don't know if this matters or not, but thought I should mention it.
