Don't forget when you create the swatch, you have to select Spot colour, not Process colour.

Also, I've tested everything in the stroke panel for compatibility with VersaWorks cut lines.

Doesn't cause problems with VersaWorks cut lines
  • Stroke weight
  • Cap style
  • Corner style
  • Miter limit
  • Dot/dashed lines
  • Changing the CMYK code for the spot colour
  • Stacking order (you can put your cut lines underneath all your artwork if you want)
  • Gradients
Does cause problems with VersaWorks cut lines
  • Stroke alignment inside/outside
  • Arrow heads (cutting lines will work, but the arrow heads will knock out any artwork beneath them with white)
  • Stroke profile
  • Stroke brush
  • Most kinds of transparency effects (blending modes, opacity, etc.), if present anywhere in the artwork

ams, mentioned the need to make the new swatch a spot color, so I just omitted that part, but you are "spot" on for catching the omission. LOL
