RE: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Engraving (Dolphin does this)

I know I am probably considered biased
(being a Founding Partner of Dolphin)
but I can confirm that our product offers
a wide range of engraving features including
Centre line fonts, True Type Fonts, Multi line,
Mirrored, At angle, On an Arc, etc etc.

Engraving (Dolphin does this)

I recall a question recently on this forum and the Sherline forum that
asked about engraving software to generate G-Code. I went back to my
Dolphin CAD/CAM software and found that the recent releases 6.x and
greater
have what appears to be very elaborate engraving routines. These appear
to
include multi-line text, multiple fonts, True-Type fonts, and wrap text
around curves, cylinders, etc. I say "appear" because I am not yet at
the
point where I have used this personally other than to test the examples.
I
have opened the sample files and run the verifier and it looks good to
me
-- a novice.

Disclaimer: I have not, as of yet, generated any G-Code or actually
engraved anything. I just tried this in response to some of the
questions
on the list.

Perhaps someone else on this list has already done so using Dolphin. If
so,
I would appreciate hearing from you.
