Offering greater flexibility to meet customer's needs, our new software comes with a wide selection of engraving fonts, clipart, import capability & features. Re: Creating and engraving text I use the Mastercam create- Create Letters to create the text geometry. Normally I font' care about the font so I use the default font of 'MCX (Box) Font' This simple font creates the letters as only lines, similar to the font your are reading now, so there is no internal area.

PRO 1 Engraving Software Program Engraves Text, Serial Numbers, Engraves at a Constant Depth on an Imported 3D Surface

Engrave Text, Logos, Serialize Numbers, Pocket, Import Images, DXF and more

The 2L PRO 1 Engraving Software Program creates detailed engraving layouts and drawings and produces standard G-code nc files quickly and simply for 3 Axis Engraving.
The 2L PRO Engraving Software Programs create generic G-code programs which use only G0 and G1 moves to ensure CNC control compatibility. It has a simple to use interface that allows virtually any cnc machine operator to create G-code programs.
Engrave and edit text, lines, numbers, characters, incrementing serial numbers, logos, JPEG, GIF, and DXF Files. Monitor engraving cycle times, perform pocketing, reverse pocketing, mirror text, and engrave text on a radius or incline, and much more with the 2L PRO 1 Engraving Software Program.

The program also performs 3D Surface Engraving to engrave at a constant depth on an Imported 3D surface. Place and modify complex geometry onto a 3D surface in just a few steps.

• Simple to use interface allows virtually any cnc machine operator to create G-code programs.
• Functions as a complete drawing program. Draw shapes, (circles, rectangles, etc.) freehand lines, and straight lines. There is no need for an external drawing program.
• Include multiple font styles and sizes, imported image files (company logos, drawings), drawn items (shapes - circles, rectangles, freehand and straight lines, etc.), and incremental serial numbers in one output cnc G-code program (.nc file).
• Engrave at a Constant Depth on an Imported 3D Surface. Project the engraving onto a surface of an imported 3D model. This creates an engraving that maintains a constant depth in relation to a 3D model. Place and modify complex geometry onto a 3D surface in just a few steps. See more details.

• Image trace feature allows importing and editing any photo images (jpg, bmp, gif formats).
• Converts image into lines and points which can be engraved. Also imports dxf files.
• Converts 2L single line engraving fonts or any font installed on your computer into standard G-code.
• Use guidelines, any drawn objects, or imported image files as reference geometry to precisely locate text or other objects to be engraved.
• Control text orientation, alignment, spacing, and size on multiple instances of text.

• The Cycle Time Monitor automatically calculates the amount of time it will take to perform the engraving job. The effect of changing font styles, sizes, and feedrates can be seen instantly to help reduce cycle times.
• The output CNC G-code is saved as a text file that may be edited with Notepad or other text editors.
• Creates Absolute (G90) and Incremental (G91) G-code output (3 Axis - XYZ). The G-code programs use only G0 and G1 moves to ensure CNC control compatibility.
• Perform Pocketing and Reverse Pocketing (Reverse Engraving), Spiral or Back and Forth Toolpaths.
• Includes eleven (11) 2L Single Line Stick Fonts.

• Import JPG, BMP, and GIF bitmap images (photos) and convert them into lines (vectors) which can be engraved. The Engraving Software automatically places a cutting tool path on the lines.
• Edit the imported photo image to improve the finished look of the engraving.
• Place text, incrementing serial numbers, drawn objects such as straight lines, freehand lines, circles, rectangles, and multiple imported images all in one layout and create one G-code nc program.
• View complete detail and sample images of this feature here.

Program description

The G-Code Text Engraving program creates G Code in real time for the milling of text by CNC Routers.

Please note this program no longer supports Inch

The program uses any True Type font and ANY language copied and pasted into it, whereby

ANY language means for example Russian, Thai, Vietnamese, Tamil, Urdu, Korean, Japanese, Chinese and so on, seriously ANY.

It makes absolutely no difference what language the text is from.

Please note that the G-Code produced by this program is for an outline of the letters, and not single lines.

This program can also be switched to German.

Any True Type font can be used, this includes all the graphical fonts available

Here is a sample https://www.fonts2u.com/category.html?id=25

Graphical fonts can also be used

Here is a video demonstrating the capabilities of the software.There is no audio
G-Code Text Engraving Specs:-

Just 88 Kb

G Code is compiled in real time every time one of the input boxes is changed or an object is dragged by the mouse resulting in a real “What you see is what you get” development environment.

The angle of the text can be at anywhere from 0 to 360 degrees. I know 360 and 0 are the same but 359 looks weird..

The text can be flipped (mirrored) horizontally.

The height and width of the text can be adjusted at a resolution of 1 mm, i.e not limited to standard font sizes.

The text can be multi line, just type away in the input box and hit enter to start a new line, or simply paste whatever you want into the box from ANY source.

No annoying “Run, Compile, Generate, Build, Save, Merge” or who knows what else cycle.

Graphics reflect changes in real time.

Jobs can be moved exactly with cursor keys, input boxes, or dragged with the mouse pixel by pixel

G Code is copied to the computer clipboard and can be pasted into a simulator or milling machine directly.

No annoying dialog boxes to click away, all messages displayed in a text box.

Each job has its own properties, independent of the other jobs.

1000 + different jobs.

Things to know:-

Here is some sample G Code in metric,

Please note this program no longer supports Inch

Please try this on your machine as an air cut before buying.

Note that Z down is MINUS in this code and that the origin 0,0 is bottom left of screen.

A 1.6 screen resolution ratio is best (screen width / screen height e.g 1680/1050 is 1.6)
or things may look distorted.

This program requires a monitor with at least 1450×1000 resolution

The program runs in:-

Windows XP, 7, 8, 10 (XP and Win 7 users will need to install the Dotnet framework 4.0, I will supply a link to this in any case, but it should already be integrated in Windows 8,10)
