Re: Single parameter G02 conversion

OK, assuming that's true, your I-value could be any number within a
range and the DXF converter may not state it because it is a default
value. A default value which comes to mind is the G91X0.0000
(G90X0.75), therefore the missing parameter is I0.0000 and you are
cutting semi-circle profiles. Some converter you got! Charles Hixon
