Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Re: Source for Single Line Egraving Fonts???

Hadn't really thought of it, but I guess I can use any font editor and make
my single line engraving Chinese characters and then use the DeskEngrave
program to get the G-Code for each character. I think there are some free
font editors out there to download. Now, if I just knew Chinese, ;-).
Elvin runes can't be far behind.

Thanks for the idea.
