Does opening a ripped (Rampage) .PS file in Illustrator, and placing it into a layout (sized and positioned for a board size for a particular die cutter, but not messing with the dielines themselves, other than placing them in position in the Illustrator layout) have any effect at all on how the...

We've always had problems getting a die to fit the printed piece if the dieline is stepped and repeated directly in Illustrator. It's frustrating, because we have to place the imposed dieline onto a template to fit a specific (Brausse) diecutter, and we always have to show the people in our...
