Are there any other plotter software options out there beyond Cutting Master compatible with Graphtec plotters and Illustrator? We could really use something with more granular control over the cutting order and cutting direction of objects.
We've tried out Cutting Master 4 recently for our plotter but went back to CM2 because it seems to honor the front to back sorting of objects in Illustrator better which gives us a little better control of cutting order and direction of objects but it's not great.
We're cutting thick media, relative to vinyl, and tend to get a lot of dog ears at start/stop points of cuts that the thick media settings don't seem to do a good job of mitigating.
