See.  More than one way to skin a letter!

I was curious as to how DFX2GCODE would handle text.  It won't.  Text must be exploded into the individual componets.  I did that with with a test file and DFX2GCODE worked.  I generated the code and ran it through a simulator I have.  The code needs to be cleaned up but the end result is good.  The letters came out as expected.  When I made the drawing I made sure I used a font that was sans serif.  

The end result, the bottom line, the long and short of it (pick one) is that what your are wanting to do can be accomplished with LibreCad and DFX2GCODE.

Let us know how it turns out.
