What problems are you having with cutting the files that you create in Inkscape and convert to GSD with Robomaster?
This is the basic problem.
When I load DXF files into the Robomaster program and save them as a GSD file (which, in Robomaster, you have to do if you want to save the file at all, it's your only save option), at some point in the process, it appears to me that the file data may be getting corrupted somehow.
Sometimes the file will cut cleanly once, but sometimes it won't. And if I copy and paste the image (what I like to do from a DXF file that's been imported into a nice clean blank GSD file so that the positioning in the Robomaster program is as I'm used to seeing it) or if I copy and paste the image to get multiple copies of it to cut on one sheet of paper, or even if I just move the image around it will usually (and this happens to me almost certainly every single time) somehow start cutting askew, usually in such a manner that the letters don't close properly or cut over other letters or over themselves, the cuts are off-line, if you know what I mean. The lines no longer match up to the file placement, something most noticable in titles I've created from text. I have wasted a lot of specialty paper in this manner, unfortunately. It's hard to explain in words, but I have photos of the offending files if you'd like to see them if you can let me know how to email you, I can give you a visual example.
Basically, if I want to save a DXF file I've loaded it automatically converts it to a GSD file, and that seems to be the point where the problems begin. The image on the screen will look exactly as it has looked, but the output will cut the patterned lines off kilter. This really messes up titles quite badly, and so using Inkscape to create welded word titles yields inconsistant results.
I love creating artwork for my Silhouette, it's a big one of the many reasons I love my machine, and I love the ability to weld and import the files, but it saddens me that I have this problem that ends up wasting so much of my paper (and usually I use specialty paper that is fairly pricey) :/ It has even occurred when I have reopened a file I've cut successfully before with no changes made to the file more than simply moving the image to another part of the virtual "mat" placement on screen, so that it will cut on another section of paper.
Today I figured a work-around, but it's not a great one. If I create the image in Inkscape and save it as a pdf file, I can open it in Adobe PhotoShop Elements (I don't have any high powered Adobe programs) and save it as a jpg and then open Robomaster and autotrace the jpg to get a rendition of the file. But it's not graphically completely accurate anymore, the letters will not be as smooth or well proportioned as it's an autotrace of a picture.
The file could also be printed out of Inkscape and scanned with a scanner and thus converted to an image file and then loaded into Robomaster via Autotrace as well, but it might be an even rougher conversion.
I've emailed the QuicKutz Customer Rep that I've been going back and forth with about this problem, and asked about what you mentioned in your last post to me, but I don't know if they are very proprietary about their gsd files, or if Graphtec has control of that, or what needs to happen to permit that type of thing, but I'm checking.
Bibi, I think, explained it probably best here, up earlier in the thread. She mentioned Bezier curves and how they import with some "aqua" colored lines. I'm having that same result. I found something under the Effects menu, Modify Path, Flatten Beziers. I tried that, hoping it might help, but I couldn't see a difference on the screen and it officially failed when cutting. Also, it did import the dxf and showed the aqua lines again, so I'm not sure if it really worked. In addition, in that experiment, I avoided grouping the image in Inkscape before saving as a dxf and I also did not set line setting colors in Inkscape (which I never do, I always set that in Robomaster) since Bibi seemed to implicate both processes in part of the problem between dxf and gsd, but none of that made a difference.
That's the issue, I think, though perhaps not explained as well as it could be. Thanks for your time and researching this, I really appreciate it, and I'm sure hundreds of other Silhouette or Robo Craft users would appreciate any kind of fix as well :)
