For printing Vector image, you need to make sure all of the lines you're going to print are a hairline thick.

I used the add text function to type "INSTRUCTABLES" in the program. It was auto set to vertical and since it fit well, I opted not to rotate it to horizontal.

INSTRUCTABLES is way to thick to print in vector as is, so there are some things we're going to do to edit it.

First, right click on the text, and select "Convert to Curves".

Then, after it's been converted, select the trace tool (in the upper right of the menu bar on my screen), and click "Hairline".

Finally, on the right side of the page, where the color swatches are, are the fill settings. Click on the white box with an X through it, which means no fill, and behold, your letters are ready to cut!

Once again, go to Print, and select Preferences, and adjust as needed.
