CR software question - size not carrying over?
First of all thanks to everyone that offered some advice on my previous question about the CE5000 and cutting paper on it!
Now for something I just can't get my head around - While helping my friend I ran into someting odd that I thought maybe someone here could explain? When I go into the software (i think it's called RoboMaster) and try to write a word I can set the option for Width and Height - i do that but then when I click OK and it places the word on the page it is not the Width and Height I specified? For example I write a 6 letter word like LETTER in font=Impact and set the Hight to 2 inches and the Width to 8 inches. when I click OK it places the word on the page but at somethign like 22 inches by 2 inches (which you can see on the bar across the bottom of the window). What am I missing here? why bother set the H and W on the previous screen if it's not going to use it?
I also noticed that when I type the word and it is placed on the virtual page, to the left of the letter L and the the right of the letter R (in the word LETTER) there is very very little extra space between them and the box around the word, but above and below the letters there is a lot of blank space which means that the word doesn't actually cut the letters at 2 inches - instead more like 1.5 inches because it is allowing for that extra space. Is there anyway to 'remove' that extra space or do I need to play with it and make practice cuts to compansate for it?
Thanks!
