Re: Source for Single Line Egraving Fonts???

Hi-
Single line TTF fonts are out there, but they are still
constructed of closed polylines, anyplace there is a single line (
Like a - ) it is constructed of a O smashed flat and this can cause
the tool to follow the - line in both directions, just like if it
were following the O shape. This is not normally a problem, but it
can cause lots of extra moves, and can also cause trying to burn the
same area twice on a plasma system. It can also confuse some cam
packages as to if a area is an island or a boundry. You can open TTF
fonts in shareware font editors and see what I mean.
Hope I didn't take to much of the fun out of single line fonts!
