I know this has been answered before but I can't seem to find it. Why do I get a few holes in my ptns when I make them? They show up anywhere and look like a dot or a spot that the bit would have to make.
Thanks for any advise

If you are using the pattern editor or Corel you sometimes get those dots. What I do is enlarge the pattern and look for those dots and erase them. Again if you are using pattern editor load the pattern and enlarge it and find the dots and erase them. Keep in mind where they are before loading the pattern! I always forget too fast, so I guess I said that for me!

Your welcome! I know it is annoying when it happens! I forget what it is called noise or something? Still a pain, but easy to fix! Hope you find them all! If you need help you can e-mail it to me and I will look at it. Let me know and I will PM my e-mail address.

The pattern editor noise filter can effectively find and eliminate those for you.

Sometimes you can get rid of the holes by choosing Bit Optimization:Best.
