Note: In order for the output to be positioned correctly on your laser, you must use Absolute Coords as the positioning mode, otherwise the output will not match the position of the print. You can also use it to register multiple passes over the same job - For example, you could use your laser to lightly engrave an outline, remove it from the machine to paint it, then put it back in the machine, align it using Print & Cut, then engrave a different area in the same project. We have a tutorial that shows how to do this here: Cutting a single project larger than your laser You can use it to register two halves of a large job with each other, for example, to cut something larger than your machine. The most common use for this is, as above, printing a file with a design on it and then using the laser to cut out the design, but it can also be used to align multiple jobs on your laser. Print and Cut in LightBurn is used to align your current project to something you've previously output. Quite a few small bugs have been fixed, and a few other improvements made."Print and Cut" normally refers to the ability to print a design on a printer, then have it automatically cut it out with a blade or laser cutting machine by using registration marks on the print to align the cut to it. Using the cursor arrows to cycle through the font list has been fixed. We've added a retry mechanism for GCode position queries to get around a bug in Ortur laser firmware. This eliminates the hang / busy that required power cycling the laser. We've added support for the new compression method used in Illustrator 2020 and newer, so AI files saved with 'Use Compression' will read the true AI content of the files instead of falling back to the PDF preview content.
A number of other tools will be getting this treatment soon, including Circular Array and Copy Along Path.
