When I import files as a .dxf the text is misaligned. It’s about an inch to the left and converts from center-aligned to left aligned. I print a lot of machine tags for my job and having to manually readjust every tags text and alignment takes too much time.
As well as that in the .dxf files I have a print area created that when printing from my old Versa Laser it automatically recognizes only the print area whereas lightburn brings in the whole file.
I was hoping someone would have a fix for this, I haven’t been able to find much other than make d with having to manually do it all.
You can select sections of the work, then use ‘Cut Selected Graphics’, found on the left side of the Lasers window, to only output the current selected section. Would this work for what you are trying to accomplish?
When I try to upload a .dxf it says it isn’t a permitted file type but I’ve got a screenshot of how the tags come out
I’m currently running the trial version of Lightburn to preview the software before I buy a laser thus I don’t have a laser connected so I don’t think I have a lasers window unless I’m missing where it is
To post that file here, just add .txt to the end of the file. It should look something like: your_file.dxf.txt
You should set up a device profile for a basic laser system to have LightBurn work properly. What type and brand of laser are you considering? You can set up manually and do not need to do the Find my Laser.
