Finecut 9 / Illustrator 2022 incompatability?

[FlorenceC]

We just updated to Illustrator 2022 here yesterday and it looks like my plugins got wiped. Finecut doesn't seem to want to install when I point it to the most recent version of Illustrator... anyone else run in to this yet?

FIneCut hasn't been updated for the latest version of illustrator yet unfortunately.

I kind of chessed it when it came to cutting master and it MAY work, not entirely sure for Finecut. But I just went to my plug-ins folder in my adobe 2021 folder, and copy pasted my plug-in into my 2022 folder.

It worked for me, but I have no idea how it will react with finecut, so just a little warning there, but if it doesn't work you can always go back in and delete out of plug-in folder.

Interesting - I'll give this a try - Thanks!

This trick is working. I thought have to wait ages for Mimaki support to create compatible version.

Glad it worked out for you!

Wait, finecut works in AI 2221?!? We're using a hacked version of AI 15... we could never get it to work in anything remotely current and it's driven us nuts as the hacked ai is a pita to install so we only have it on one of our workstations and it's hard to generate print files from home etc.

I need to try it out again in a current version of illustrator.

You need Mimaki Finecut 8/9 also a valid serial number to get this plugin working with your Illustrator CS6 - CC2019
Fresh installation of FC9 to CC2022 wont identify your Ai.
Good luck
