We ran our PNC1000 and 1000A directly from CD9, and later from X3 without any hassles.
Set the cutter as a printer, and print to it.:thumb:

Hopefully OP will chip in with some advice on the subject.
He seems to have a little knowledge of these apparatus.:notworthy:

Try resetting corel to original workspace. I have been running corel 10 and signtools3 and a pnc 1000a for several years. (hold down F8 and start corel)

or reinstall signtools. you could contact signtools in australia. They have always been helpful.

Is the problem that you can't get the design into sign tools 3, or you can't get sign tools 3 to cut the design?

Select the thing you want to cut in Corel, click "copy" from the drop down "edit" menu. Open sign tools 3 and find the "paste" command. Click paste.

So you can't copy and paste items in Signtools? Weird....most software will allow that(right click, paste). Sounds like your issue is getting signtools to cut though, not getting the file into it to be cut.

DELETE SIGN TOOLS...........and cut right from corel!!!!!
go to www.rolanddga.com and download the driver, install it like a printer, connect to printer port...
MAKE SURE YOU ASIGN A HAIRLINE.........to anything you want to cut from corel.

outline @ hairline (like fill, but outline...) ie make a box, assign it a hairline outline, then print to roland and it will cut the square - thicker outlines wont cut

www.rolanddg.com
is where you will find it under SUPPORT!!!!
the one you want is a exe flie ...d029270j.exe (310KB)
D/L IT, into its own directory, RUN IT......and it will open a buch of other files.
now go to ADD PRINTER.........when it asks for location of printer HIT HAVE DISK, then direct machine to the directory YOU PUT THAT FILE...........and install the driver for the PNC-1000, PNC-1000A..........then tell it what PRINTER PORT YOU HAVE IT ON........and that will work
