Preparing toolpaths for creating text with an extrusion-based 2D or 3D fabricator

Preparing graphics a printed circuit board with minimum trace width requirementsĨ. Preparing a file to be drawn by a pen plotterħ. Preparing a file to be engraved by a rotary engraving toolĦ. Preparing a file to be milled by a CNC routerĥ. Preparing a file to be fed to a paper or vinyl cutterĤ. Preparing a file to be fed to an embroidery machineģ. Preparing a file to be printed on a vector-mode laser engraverĢ. Here are some examples cases (and, just ones that I have personally come across!) where lack of engraving fonts support is an inconvenience in Inkscape:ġ. The fabrication tool resolution is non-negligible, so that the stroke width is an important part of the character shape The fabrication time depends on the total path length (e.g., pen plotter, vinyl cutter, milling machine)Ģ. Engraving fonts are ones where the visible portion of any given character is the *stroke*, not the *fill*.Įngraving fonts are commonly used when producing text-containing files that will eventually be fed to fabrication tools, when either of the following two conditions is true:ġ. G2 X55.4186 Y108.0804 I107.0886 J-42.Inkscape does not presently support single-stroke or other stroke-based fonts, also known as engraving fonts. Try copy and paste it into and it looks fine. Could this have something to do with the different types of Gcode? Other than that, i dont really know why else it wouldn't follow the proper path.

I am using an Anet A8 with marlin firmware flashed onto it.

When I upload the code to the printer, it just prints straight lines to different points that only just bare a resemblance of the original shape.

I have tried the code on an online gcode simulator ( ) and it works fine. I modified the code a little to include an auto-home and move z axis to a certain height. I have created a shape using Inkscape, and used an extension to turn it into gcode. It's output can be controlled via the fan level control. I am trying to use my 3D Printer as a laser cutter.
