Unable to Use Single Line Fonts

Post by rjgodboout »

Being a newbie here, I appreciate the value of this forum. I have been unable to use single line fonts in V-Carvo Pro vs 9. When I open V-Carve/Engraving Toolpath I get the multiple Open vectors and group message. It will not calculate.
If I go to Edit: Selection: Select all open vectors: it states no open vectors in design. I have not been to use any of the single line fonts.
Any one know how to get around this issue???
Thanks so much,

Just passing through:

V-Carve/Engrave toolpath: closed vectors (for text: non-single stroke fonts)
Quick Engrave toolpath: open vectors allowed (for text: single stroke fonts usable)

You can't V Carve single line fonts. Use the Profile toolpath with the On the line option.
