PLEASE HELPPPPPPPPPPP
« on: October 16, 2012, 11:10:50 AM »
Im just getting familiar with the Mach3 & Lazy Cam program. Ive figured out how to get a photo thats already onto my computer (before i installed the mach 3 program) into lazy cam & in gcode format onto my mach3 program. now when i want to save a photo from the internet or a text photo ive created on word pad etc. it appears in my documents/my pictures on my computer but when i go into the folder thru lazy cam it doesnt appear. my question is how am i able to upload a brand new saved doc. into lazy cam? If that makes any sense. im a girl

In the flyout window try All picture types for the types of files to be shown ( i am using XP).
What Windows operating system are you using?

BTW,
Matters not if your a girl around here, only that you be a "cnc person".   ;)

Nick,
Post the dxf file.
Save the file as a version 12 DXF and it should be a 2d file.

See my reply to your other thread. Use LazyTurn instead. You will find a user manual for LazyTurn in Member's Doc's.
