The source for TTF2CXF_STREAM is available in the F-Engrave source code zip file. TTF2CXF (Ribbonsoft) (To compile on Ubuntu I had to add "-lm" in the Makefile and "#include " in the main.cpp file.)į-Engrave uses a modified version of TTF2CXF (called TTF2CXF_STREAM) to import TTF fonts on the fly. Utility that converts True Type font (TTF) files into CXF format: when you are finished with your text select File-Write To Axis and Exit, This option only existed when executed from within Axis) Usable as an LinuxCNC Axis filter program (open the f-engrave.py file from within LinuxCNC Axis File-Open-f-engrave.py. Customizable G-Code preamble and post-amble Display line thickness to be used during engraving allows visualization of end result
Origin selection allows user to select the location of g-code zero position Mirroring text (vertical) and flipping text (horizontal)
Supports multiple lines of text with justification (Left, Right and Centered) Capable of exporting Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) file Uses TTF font files (with the help of ttf2cxf_stream, not all formats are supported) Imports bitmap images (with Potrace helper program) Straight bit pocketing (in the v-carve window) cut pockets using a straight bit. B-Carving, v-carving with a ball nose bit instead of a v-bit (see image below) V-Carve inlay support (see video below) V-carve for outline fonts, images and DXF files (DXF files and fonts should be composed of closed section loops when v-carving)
