Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] HPGL and DANCAD question.

For some reason it is not getting a pen up command before it moves to the

dancad ascii file try that2.

the file. When it cuts, it does the first rectangle, then instead of moving
to inside the first rectangle it moves diagonaly across the work and starts
outside the rectangle and cuts the second rectangle and then proceeds to
place the text in the middle, every time I recheck with a viewer and the
hpgl file looks fine.
