cutting files?
 

Which machine do you guys recommend for use with the cutting files sold here? I would like a machine to start making cards and stuff..just need some opinions..

Silhouette Portrait(which cuts up to 8x11) or Silhouette Cameo(which cuts up to 12x12)

They work with any files you can find on the internet, any font on your computer, etc.

I love mine. I rarely go more than a few days without using it.

Awesome, thanks!

I LOVE my Cameo!!!

I love my Portrait! :)

I have the Portrait and love it. I do a lot of print ad cut, so no need to get the cameo since my printer can't handle bigger than A4 anyway.

Looking at the different formats provided in the shop you should be able to use them all with the basic silhouette software. Png is fine for files without perforations/scoring. If it's a 3D design (with score lines) look for STUDIO or DXF files. If you want to use SVGs you either need the DE software or dowload inkscape and resave the files as DXF.
