Aligning text in templates

I’ve purchased a template for engraving pencils. I can’t find information on how to engrave each individual text, pencil to pencil, using User Origin, Current Position, or Absolute Coordinates. I am sure it is available somewhere, I just can’t find it.

Thanks for any guidance.

It would be helpful to see the template you’re dealing with. Don’t upload it since it’s something you purchased, but post a good screenshot.

Did you purchase the template precut, or just the file that you need to cut?

Just the file from Etsy

Ok, I’m going to make a short video for you. It’s easier for me than typing it all out. Give me a little time, maybe 30 minutes.

Really appreciate that!

Here’s the video. Make sure to save the file after you do the cut out and have your alignment boxes in place. You don’t have to use the alignment Boxes, but I think it makes things easier.

That is amazing! Now it makes sense. I think part of my problem is I’m still learning “the language” of laser/engraving, so I don’t think I ask the right questions (at least to Mr. YouTube).
I so appreciate you spending so much time on this for me.

All the best
Mike
