Using Cut2d
I am thinking that the setup for the steps is wrong.
Can't exactly say why I think this, but I'm going to do my own learning procedure to check the manufacturer's figures.

Okie Doke.
I have just altered the setup to a random increase and there was a change in the swept area, so looks like I gotta do some real calibration tomorrow.
Looks like that takes care of the sizing problem, but the failure in the not loading all the text still is there. Although I drew a rectangle wider than the "READY" text size and that imported correctly??
Gotta do some more tomorrow.

Looks like you are doing OK on your own and making progress.

Yeah Tweak, I'll be doing that as soon as I get a bit of sleep and get over being an idiot! (Again)

Hey buddy, don't do yourself down, we have all been there - in my case many times.
There are a number of test programs which are below the 500 line limit here
http://www.machsupport.com/forum/index.php/topic,18345.0.html
these may be helpful in setting up and trying out your machine etc.
