FAQ
SCUT2 to CAL Conversion
What are SCUT2 files?
SCUT2 is a cutting project saved by the second version of Sure Cuts A Lot from Craft Edge, or by Easy Cut Studio 2, which uses the same extension. The file contains the design that will be sent to an electronic cutting machine, stored as vector paths with their grouping, transformations, stroke and fill attributes, plus the cutting mat dimensions and the selected machine profile. Documentation from this generation of Sure Cuts A Lot describes it as a tool for cutting TrueType fonts and imported SVG artwork with a Cricut machine, which makes SCUT2 one of the most common formats in older craft template collections. Both applications can still open SCUT2 projects in their current releases, but the format cannot be read by mainstream vector editors. Converting SCUT2 to SVG is the usual route for anyone who wants to keep using a purchased design library after moving to a different cutter.
What are CAL files?
A CAL image file represents a monochrome bitmap image that uses the CALS raster image standard for storing graphics data. This standard was created in the 1980s by the US Department of Defence as a compressed interchangeable image format. CAL and CALS are extensions used for similar purposes.
