My biggest problem is measuring and sizing a project and how to get more on the paper to print and cut

Hello Laurie:

For print and cut I have a couple of tips for you:

1- If you can ungroup your design, go for it, since you can arrange it better on the sheet before cutting.

2- Sadly the margin is pre-defined for print then cut functionality and you are not able to use more space on your sheet.

3- take into consideration that if you are using the print and then cut functionality, you can not print and cut on the leftover of your sheet unless you have a printer that allows you custom paper size.

If you have any particular project related to print then cut that you are working on and you want to share a picture (including the right side where the layers are) I can help you trying to see how to re-arrange it to maje it fit into the print sheet.

Let me know if you have any other questions or concerns.

Warmly,

Paula
