adobe illustrator/multiple colour vinyl
Hi,
Hope some one can help i am new to adobe illustrator / vinyl cutting however if i want to make a decal of three colour vinyl and create it in illustrator over three separate layers how do i get marks to line up all vinyl to recreate picture ?. i have watched you tube clips and understand how to put all back together apart from putting the marks on in the first place to line it all up. i have tried making a template with multiple layers with all marks in same place then saving as template , please if any one knows easier way ?? help would be much appreciated. also how do you split down a vector image to cut various colour vinyl out ? thanks in advance Braddaz |

by eye? use two or three dots to line up then discard them.
not sure what yer making, ive loads of experience with layering vinyl, but depending what it is / what its for, why not get it printed? its a load easier -and i can print it as my layered vinyl stuff gathers dust.

Hi thanks for reply
I have to ability to print the desing on to printable vinyl but some times loses colour , Wanted to create layered designs to keep max colour from different vinyl . On printable vinyl an after design created do you put some thing over like clear sheet to keep from getting damaged ? It's big learning curve but very interesting lol |

You can lose colour because it's printing cmyk - certanly. You'll never get a vivid flourescent orange printed for instance. Where you can use any type of vinyls mixed together.
Yes - printed stuff is laminated with clear vinyl.
