Engraving Text (hacking it using an SVG)

As far as I know engraving text, a "simple" feature is not yet available(please correct me in wrong). So as a hack, I tried importing an SVG of the text I want. See attached "S".  This kind of works but when it comes to the CAM (using Trace) I have to hand select every tiny little segment of every letter. In this case the S alone has about 15 segments. I believe because of this, the generated toolpath keeps retracting (keep down is on). Obviously all I want it a single line toolpath.  Help is appreciated thanks.
