I think it would also be better for diodes that have a rectangular beam, and so have a different kerf on the vertical and horizontal axis. My test doesn’t account for that.
HaHa! Don’t tell us, tell the Programmers!
Better would be if the manufacturers fixed the laser modules. The eye doctor can write a script for glasses to correct astigmatism, right?

bah! just rotate 90deg and send it!
Yeah, honestly I don’t understand why the diode manufacturers don’t just put the beam source on a 45 degree angle, that would solve the issue for most users most of the time.

Yeah, but then they could not make those small-dot claims in advertising.
At any time they could start mounting the diodes rotated 45° in the support frame. Of course, only 10w and up lasers would benefit. Where there are 3 diodes, #2 & #3 could be rotated 30° & 60° (or something like that).

How do you get that font
Which font is ‘that’ font you mention? The fonts used in LightBurn are the system fonts.

The font that is used in the kerf offset test. The ones that say Box Joints Part A and Box Joints Part B
I believe I got it here: SHX Font Collection
If you’ve never used SHX fonts before, they’re a bit different to system fonts:
