cutting out of corel X3

Hello,
I have corelx3 and also signlab. I have been doing most of my jobs out of signlab and no problem printing and cutting it.
I am noticing that my bitmaps and eye candy looks much better in corel and also I am able to work in the files better than signlab. When ever I work with fills in signlab it slooows way down and I can't work there. I tried using corelx3 and I am having no problem with the computer being slow. My fills are very crisp and I am much happier with it.
When I copy and paste the file into signlab to print and cut it the file comes in poorly.
I am thinking that I would like to keep it right in corel and print and cut out of that.
My question is: When I'm in signlab there is a feature on my contour cut to "Bleed" so I the design comes out larger so there is no white showing on my cut line. Also I can choose to have the file cut inside and out or outside only on my contour line.
Am I able to do this in corelx3??
I have my rip program that came with my versacamm.

One more question: In corel x3 how do you keep a contour line to downsize or upsize proportionally? When ever I do a design and use a contour if I down size the contour line stays the same as my large design and I have to go in and change it to a smaller line. I was told to use a contour line instead of a outline.

Thanks,
Stacy
