Title: Wizards write question
Post by: johndolecki on March 23, 2024, 03:54:59 PM

If I want to engrave two words how do I control the spacing between the words?

In its current configuration spacing controls the gap between the letters.

The space between the word is huge and I don’t see a setting for that.

Or do I just have to engrave each word separately ?

Are you talking about the Mach3 engraving wizard?  I suggest you download F-Engrave and use that instead to generate g code.

You can open the VB script for the font you are using and change the word spacing as in the pic. Reduce by about half, save and see what you get.
