Creating a proof

If a customer requires a proof of a map that I am going to make on my shapeoko using CC as the CAD - what is the best way to produce a printed proof to show. I am not able to print from Carbide Create.
Thanks in advance

Just take a screen-shot, then past that into your favorite image program, save and print from there.
On Windows:
Alt+ Print Screen - snapshot current window
Windows Key + Shift + S - Highlight an area and copy it as the snapshot

You probably also have a program “Snip & Sketch” that does the same as the second key combo above. You can print directly from this program.

Sounds good - thanks for the info

Current versions of Carbide Create are able to print:

One can even divert to a PDF and get a nice vector PDF.

Note that the Stock should be at a minimum similar proportions to the page size used.
