I have the font, but I'm not home right now. I will be back on Tuesday and can check then. Sorry! That's really weird that it doesn't work even when shimming it. Hmmm... regardless, it sounds like you need to contact Lifestyle Crafts and see if they have a replacement.

Hi, Chili! I tested my zero, and it needs a shim to cut completely. Without one, most of it cuts, except for the upright end beneath the top loop. With the shim, all is fine.
What happens with yours - no cutting at all, a partial cut, or what???

I'm not where I can check this font, either, but here's something I've done with a couple of other 4x8's...
Try turning it around on the platform (top to bottom, bottom to top)...but definitely with a shim!
If you have another cutting option (Epic/Big Shot/Vagabond/etc.), try putting the die in different areas on that platform...sometimes placing it in various locations on the platform where it goes under under the "rollers" makes a difference in whether or not it will cut.
Good luck...it can be so frustrating if all but one little thing works fine, and that one little thing becomes a big thing!

hi back inside to check the cake - football cake as it is first game of the season GO GREEN anyways ;D my doesn't cut in the same place as yours gail and i put 2 shims and a partial in that area....... didn't try it on the epic, but thought with the shims, new mat and different areas on the rev now i think the #'s are too big for the layout and am not sure which littler font i should try......... don't have a whole lot of them and tried handwriting - didn't like that..... just one of those layouts i guess.... time to put it aside and move on!!! you all came to my rescue thanx so very much it is appreciated
