Hi Anderson.  FeatureCAM is not a design system (CAD), but a CAM system that has some CAD tools.  With that being said, I had to separate each letter or number into an individual solid so we can use the translation option.

Take a look at this video.  It would probably be easier in PowerShape or Fusion 360, but this is how I did it in FeatureCAM......hope it helps.  Maybe someone has a better solution, but this is what I could come up with.

I did try exploding it into surfaces, which was faster, but we lose colour information, and sewing it back to a solid was not easy.

Did my video help you out, or are you still requiring assistance?

Thank you very much for sharing knowledge, there is always a question whether we are doing it correctly, if there is another resource, or way, thanks for clarifying.
