Using fonts
I am new to this forum and new to the CNC world. We are trying to engrave a name and having troubles finding a way for the tool path to "trace" a letter as you would on a piece of paper with the v-groove bit. all the font i come across is in the form a "bubble letters. Is there a way to tell Aspire to trace the letters without bubbling them. I hope this is understandable. Thank you

Re: Using fonts
Not sure what you mean by "bubble letter". A picture would help.....
Have you looked at the quick engraving toolpath?

Re: Using fonts
A single line font would work ,,,I think this is what you're referring to..
But you can't "V-Carve" it.
You can use a "profile" toolpath to achieve the effect...
