edit post processor
Can you tell me how to edit the gcodes (.tap) post processor file to elliminate the beginning and ending codes so my machine can use it (so I don't have to do this with every file-- thanks
The postprocessors are in the folder named,
C:\Program Files\VCarve Wizard 2.0 or PhotoVCarve\PostP
Make a Safe Copy of the Postp you wish to change.
Use a text editor such as NotePad to open the file you wish to modify
The postp has a very simple structure,
begin HEADER
"T1M6"
"G17"
"G0[ZH]"
"G0[XH][YH][S]M3"
Simply remove / edit as required ensuring that the required syntax is enclosed in " "
begin FOOTER
"G0[ZH]"
"G0[XH][YH]"
"M30"
Save the modified file ensuring you replace the original.
Important - By default NotePad will save the file with a .TXT extension which will
create a file that doesn't get opened by the software.
Make sure the new file has a .PP extension

You can always e-mail the changes you require to support@vectric.com
and we will send you the modified postp.
