Sorry, new to this and have a question regarding .svg files. I’m trying to get a cricut maker, (basically a printer designed to cut vinyl, or draw with markers) to color in the spaces between the lines on an svg file. It takes the svg file that most people use to “cut” vinyl and makes iron-on’s for t-shirts. You can also tell it to “draw” the svg file on a piece of paper and it will draw the outline and you can then manually color the picture in with the markers and transfer It to the t-shirt.
The machine is not designed to color in the picture just do an outline. The thing is, I have an svg from someone that has a very small amount of the picture that looks like it is drawn in. In other words, if you zoom in closely the lines on these portions look like the marker has written back and forth to, “fill in” these sections. From the zoomed out view you hardly notice. It’s just a thick line, but none-the-less to me it looks like the machine has actually started to fill in the extremely small area. When I print this fie on the Cricut, it works with no issues.
What I’m trying to do is figure out how this was done and I think it may have something to do with the svg file. Is anyone familiar with how this process may have been done. To me it looks as if a computer would have been used to create the lines that have been drawn in. As far as I can tell, the software that came with the Cricut does not have a utility to do this. If you take a look at the file I have included you will see exactly what I’m talking about.
I know this may not be photoshop related, but I am hoping photoshop may be able to fill-in these areas in a way Cricut can understand and print. I have already tried with no success but my skills are limited.
Thanks in advance for anyone willing to take a look.
Tom
