problem with other software and v-carve

Post by MaxRichards »

I draw in b0b-cad save it as dxf file to import into v-carve sometimes it works but not everytime.
What could I be doing wrong. The files are simple grove cuts.


Thanks

Hello Max,
I use other software some to for my dxf files and the main problem that I have is that none of the lines are joined. Also Before I save them I always select everything in Bob Cad and use the cleanup and Optimize before I save it. You have to join the shapes in order to vcarve it or cut inside or outside the lines. Hope this helps
