'Creating your drawing'DXF files cannot handle 'True Type'
fonts very well as there is no 'standardized' format to follow.
To guarantee
that the cut path is exactly the same as your drawing you need to
convert any text into lines. This is often called 'exploding'. If you
are not familiar with 'exploding' text look in the documentation for
your CAD/drawing program to find out more. If your CAD/drawing package
supports HPGL export then try exporting your drawing as HPGL. Most
CAD/drawing packages will automatically convert text to lines when
exporting HPGL.
Note:
Some drawing programs have an option to 'convert text to lines' rather
than having an 'explode' function but the end result is the same, text
blocks are converted to lines that SheetCam will recognize.
