Post by PsiDave »

Is it possible to output from aspire to my co2 cutter/engraving laser. Laser has a DSP control

Depends if it supports loading 3rd party code files or not. A lot of the Chinese style lasers will only work with their own control software so the closest you can get with Vectric software is to export the vectors in a format that the machines control software will load like AI, PDF etc.
