Transferring Vectric drawings to another platform

Post by Soapyjoe »

Hi Everybody
I wish to transfer a number of Vectric drawings and toolpaths to another platform to enable me to illustrate an article I am writing about a particular project I made some time ago.
It may be quite simple but, as yet, I do not know how to do this ... can any kind person help?

Depends on exactly what you want to do. There are multiple export formats for the vectors (drawing) on the file export menu.

For the toolpaths you can export the preview in bitmap formats via the Save Preview Image button or corresponding menu item.

Thanks gkas and Adrian,
Exactly what I needed ....
I have done it in the past but clean forgotten how I did it
The joys of getting older!
Great forum!
