Fonts for CNC Machining

[Anonymous]

Hi there, I am a CNC machinist and my client uses Autocad LT.  We are having isues with a single line font for engraving onto our plywood sheets.

I have downloaded Cambam stick font and also mecsoft-1 and both work in Rhino.  When exported from autocad the fonts do not open in Rhino or my cnc package.

attached is the file from autocad from client to test the font

Can anyone help?

see http://www.cambam.info/doc/plus/tutorials/Engraving.htm

and follow the link to the forum for a stick font.

dunno if it will help or not -- since I don't have a CNC to play with

I changed the font to Romans.shx and then made a copy and exploded it in the attached file.  I am not sure this will help but it is worth a try.
