Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] G-Code

Yes I got a new copy of desk engrave. This is what I get when I try to
save "Cap" in bookman old style, 72 points. Its the same if I save
directly from Desk Engrave or DFX- Ace converter.Ive tried 100 times
with the same result.
G90 TO F100.0
N0 G00 Z25
N1 G00 X-3 Y1
N3 G01 Z0 F100.0
N4 F100.0
N5 X-3 Y1
N6 X-3 Y1
It goes on like this for 675 lines somtimes it goes to x-1 or X-2and Y0
But that is the only change.
