Smart XaraX vs Dirty AI files (little tip for vinyl cutting)

Hi People!

How to release undesirable lines in curved letters (in illustrator files usually)to cut them with plotter... http://www.talkgraphics.com/images/smilies/confused.gif
...probably you can use CorelDRAW or Freehand, but here there will be a lot of superfluous operations http://www.talkgraphics.com/images/smilies/frown.gif
So XaraX do it immediately http://www.talkgraphics.com/images/smilies/cool.gif

Terrific tip Alexander.

I suspect this Illustrator method is from the very early days when PostScript could not process complex paths and so it broke images into smaller parts.
