I have been working of converting a group of fonts to Open TTF Stick fonts.
Attached is a .CB file that has samples of all the 8 Stick Fonts I have been working on.
By turning on and off the MOP,s you can generate the G-Code and see the results.
The very first MOP contains samples of ALL the Stick Fonts and will generate a G-Code file that is over 7000 line long. That is why I added the individual MOP's so you can test the results of each Stick Font a little quicker and easier.
Before you can run the .CB file in CamBam you need to load the Stick Fonts into your font directory.
You need to download the attached Stick Fonts and install them first. Your fonts directory is located at:
C:\WINDOWS\Fonts Just cut and paste the 8 font files into that directory and they will install automatically. They are in a folder in the .rar format.
You will note that they all start with 1CamBam so they will appear at the very top of your Fonts list after the install.
I find they do work faster than the more conventional TTF fonts as they don't need to be cut both inside and outside.
After you select a font in the CamBam Text routine and start typing, you may find them to be quite faint in the background. Also you may see some solid objects as, for example, an "O" is totally filled in. Just one of the quirky things that are happening with the conversion that I am using.
I am not sure how helpful this font set will be, but I sure do like it for the things that I am doing on this end. Using them I have cut my engraving time by more than half.
Making the G-Code usually throws some kind of an error as well, but it does not seem to bother the final engraving results.
Please give them a try and let me know if you think they can be usable for your engraving needs.
