How Do I Cut a Downloaded Image in Silhouette Cameo?

Cutting images with a Silhouette Cameo is a great way to create unique, custom designs. Whether you’re cutting fabric, paper, vinyl, or other material, the Cameo can make it happen.

But what if you want to cut an image that you’ve downloaded? Fortunately, the Silhouette Studio software has all the tools you need to turn a downloaded image into an amazing craft project.

The first step is to find an image that you’d like to use. It’s important to make sure that any images you use are copyright-free and not protected by any copyright laws. Once you have your image, open it in your Silhouette Studio software.

You’ll then want to trace the image so that the Silhouette Cameo will recognize it as a shape. To do this, click on “Trace” in the top menu bar and select “Trace Area”. This will bring up an orange box around your entire image.

Once your image is traced, it’s time to adjust the settings for cutting. Click on “Edit” in the top menu bar and select “Cut Settings”.

From here, you’ll be able to adjust things like blade type and pressure depending on what material you’re cutting and how intricate the design is. Once everything is set up properly, click “Send” in the top menu bar and select “Send To Silhouette”. This will send your design over to your Cameo where it will be ready to cut.

Conclusion:
Cutting downloaded images with a Silhouette Cameo is easy with the help of their powerful software. All it takes is tracing your image with the Trace Area tool and making sure all of your Cut Settings are correct before sending it over to be cut.
