Hi John,
Unfortunately SheetCam can't do that. There is a text wizard available for Mach that does pretty much what you want. Alternatively have a look at DesignCad Express from <>. It has built in single-line fonts. You can then use SheetCam or Lazycam to convert the drawings to g-code.

Hi Les,
So my question is, can SheetCAM create letters from a DXF file where the
tool is an engraving bit and the tool path is the centre of the letter. I
need speed here. I currently use a hand held vibratory engraver and can
whip out 12 sets of two digit serial #s very quickly and the numbers are
quite legible. I don't want the G-Code to follow the outline of a letter. Does this make sense?
