Title: Write wizard bounding box
Post by: OCNC on February 02, 2011, 07:27:40 AM

I'm wondering if there's a simple way to get the bounding box for any lettering produced via the Write wizard. 
More specifically the easiest way to come up with the bounding dimensions.
Thanks.

Chris

Hi Chris, welcome to the group !  :)
You can set the text start at 0,0 in the wizard, then post the code and look at the Program limits in the ToolPath screen.
Hope this helps you.
Regards,
