Hi Burrman,

Was just thinking the approach of Michael's is great on single letters or a few letters
...but what about if there is a whole paragraph of text where many of the letters could be
quite small?

Points noted about STL* and I've discounted that route...
so now wondering, could a bitmap>3d route work nice e.g.
max's heightmap?



Greyscale bitmaps of some "I" files attached. This was sent to me from one of the technical
guys at Cadlink Engravelab/Signlab software. They don't do stl but do can do
bitmaps of toolpaths easy and fast...

As I don't have heightmap installed and had issues knowing where to install it, hoping someone can try...

Cheers

Stefano
