ironplanet uk900 Posted November 16, 2009 Report Share Posted November 16, 2009 no need to use tape, just preview the job Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hakeemz Posted November 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2009 preview makes sense as the macine is slightly out of alignment (for longer lines of text like this one which is whole 225 of engr area clear tape also helps me spot if it is accepable or not no dont know what grouping means ..i know group and ungroup in corel but not in gift thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have never used "gift" so can't advise on the group and ugroup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hakeemz Posted November 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2009 origin is fine its a long line of text which if not 100% straight is spotable when compared to base of the plate if you know what i mean.on smaller length plates of upto 100mm its ok i think there is a tiny give in the shaft which i loosen to bring the vice up or twist it..not that i can feel it but cant think of any other reason why it wont engrave spot on in line as shown in preview..
