Kiss-cut die-line with bleed

Generate a single closed cut-contour around your artwork and dial the bleed offset for perfect sticker kiss-cutting.

Cut-ready formats

Machine-ready geometry, four ways.

The same trace becomes cut-ready geometry for CAD, plotters, lasers and sticker kiss-cutting — plus clean vector handoff for print.

📐

DXF (R2010)

One layer per extracted color, Y-up coordinate space, curves flattened to polyline segments. Opens cleanly in AutoCAD, LibreCAD, laser & CNC controllers.

🖊️

HPGL / PLT

Native plotter pen commands for vinyl cutters — Cricut, Cameo, Graphtec and Roland. Single-pass cutting paths straight from the trace.

🔥

G-code

Toolpath output for CO₂ lasers & CNC routers. Ready-to-run .nc / .gcode / .tap with clean, continuous cut paths.

✂️

Cut-Contour Die-Line

A single closed outline around your artwork with an adjustable bleed offset — the exact silhouette for sticker kiss-cutting.

📄

Print-Ready PDF & EPS

True vector PDF for print production and legacy EPS for print shops that still demand it. Crisp at any scale.

🧬

Layered SVG Handoff

Clean, grouped, layered SVG that opens in Illustrator, CorelDRAW, Affinity, Figma and Inkscape — the source of truth for every other format.

Format reference

Which format for which machine?

Pick the output that matches your hardware. Every format is generated from the same traced vector, so geometry always matches.

Trace → configure → cut.

Trace or import

Drop a raster logo or open an existing SVG. Vecspine produces a clean traced vector with one shape per color — the source for every cut format.

Configure the cut

Pick your format and, for die-lines, set the bleed offset. DXF writes one layer per color so you can cut each color separately.

Export & cut

Export DXF, HPGL, G-code or die-line in one click. Load the file into your cutter, plotter or controller and cut — no manual cleanup.

FAQ

Cut-ready questions, answered.

Is the DXF usable on laser cutters and sign plotters?

Yes. Vecspine exports R2010 DXF with one layer per extracted color, Y-up coordinate space, and all curves flattened to polyline segments the machines understand. It's been tested on vinyl cutters, CO₂ lasers, CNC routers and AutoCAD / LibreCAD.

What cut-ready formats do you export?

Four cut formats plus vector handoff: DXF (R2010, per-color layers) for CAD/CNC, HPGL/PLT for vinyl plotters, G-code for CO₂ lasers & CNC routers, and a cut-contour die-line SVG with adjustable bleed — plus layered SVG, print PDF and legacy EPS.

What is a cut-contour die-line?

A single closed outline around your artwork with an adjustable bleed offset, used for sticker kiss-cutting. Vecspine generates it from the traced artwork so your cutter follows the exact silhouette.

Do cut files keep my colors as layers?

Yes. The DXF writes one layer per extracted color so you can toggle or cut each color separately. HPGL and G-code are single-path toolpaths suited to one-pass cutting.

Are curves preserved in DXF?

Curves are flattened to dense polyline segments so every machine — including older plotters and controllers that only read LINE entities — cuts smooth shapes.
