Can I cut perforations using PTCreate Pro and an LX610.

Perforations can be created using PTCreate Pro.  Note the following considerations:

1. Use Paper-based media for best results.
   
2. The perf cut should be horizontal across the page for best alignment results. 
   

Instructions:

1. Click the Draw Tool.  

2. Click a point on the page, click another point on the page that is straight horizontally from the first point.  To stop drawing your line, click the arrow button OR press the ESC key on your keyboard.

3. Make final adjustments to the line width in the Position and Size window.

4. Move your line to the position you want. 

5. Go to the Fill & Stroke window to change the line style to a dashed line. 

6. Change the perf layer to Cut Only!
