CUT is the image format of Dr Halo, a paint program from the DOS years. The file holds the picture data, while its colors are usually kept in a matching PAL palette file next to it. Because almost no current viewer reads CUT, converting it is the practical route.

How do I convert CUT to PDF?

Upload the CUT file to CoolUtils' online converter, choose PDF as the output format and click Convert. Download the PDF when it appears. It opens in any browser or reader and prints normally.

Is converting CUT to PDF free?

Yes. There is no fee, no account and no email address to give. Upload one file, choose PDF and download the page.

Do I need Dr Halo to open a CUT file?

No. The converter reads the file for you and returns a PDF, so you do not need the original DOS program or an emulator for it. A browser is enough.

Why do the colors in my CUT file look wrong?

CUT files keep the palette separately in a PAL file, so a picture opened without its palette can appear in the wrong colors. Store both files together when you have them. Converting to PDF gives you a fixed page that always looks the same.

Can I convert a CUT file on a Mac or a phone?

Yes. The converter is a web page, so macOS, Linux, Android and iOS work exactly like Windows. Upload the file, select PDF and save the result.

File extension	.CUT
Category	Image File
Description	CUT is a commonly used extension for cutter/plotter 'cut files' that store vector cutting paths (lines/curves) intended for vinyl cutters, garment/pattern cutters, and other cutting plotters. The exact internal structure is vendor-specific (multiple incompatible CUT variants exist), but the general purpose is to transfer contour/trajectory data for cutting, sometimes with basic job parameters like scale, ordering, layers/tools, or registration marks depending on the originating software.
