Drop your file
SVG or DXF. Units are read from the file so a 300 mm design stays 300 mm.
Boolean & shape
Compound Path Creator
Make holes by combining inner and outer shapes.
How it works
Adjust the operation
Compound Path Creator works on flattened polygons with micron precision; holes are preserved as compound paths.
Export
Download SVG, DXF or PLT, or copy the SVG straight into your design software.
Common questions
Why are curves converted to short straight segments?
Cutting machines move in straight segments anyway; a 0.3 mm segment length is finer than any blade or beam can reproduce and keeps every operation exact.
My file loads with the wrong size
Files without a viewBox or physical width are treated as 96 DPI pixels. Use the Resize operation to set the exact width you need.
Does it handle live text?
Live text is flagged and skipped — convert it to paths in your editor or recreate it with the calligraphy tools here.
