Uncle Gravy--I think the Silhouette Cameo's PixScan mat allows you to scan or put a drawn picture or one cut from another source, into the computer for cutting. The special mat allows calibration to occur and cut accurately.
i know they have upgraded the Cameo, but my original one did not allow SVG files without a $50 software upgrade. One nice thing I've found is I can use any text on my computer for alpha or numbers with Cameo.
So tell me more about the TerialMagic--does it allow turned edged? I've always just used a lightweight fusible before cutting with the Cameo, but would like a way to turn edge on some appliques.
