Title: Lacycam export to mach3 issues
Post by: vadude on September 12, 2009, 09:56:20 PM

I have a licensed mach3 with an unlicensed lazycam.I am able to upload a dxf file with a rectangle drawn in it to Lazycam.I inserted a text " test" into the rectangle & then deleted the rectangular outline.
I see the file as fomatted corectly in Lazycam/.However after loading it successfully into mach3,all i see 2 more chains added to my only chain 0 and a series of vertical & horizontal lines without the text that i am after.
   When I tried to cutting it,i see the machine trying to cut a pocket to the size of the rectangle without the rquired test.What am i doing wrong here?

See the "TUTORIAL #4 - TEXT" in the manual. The manual is in the members Docs. Text is also covered in the video.
