Chiefsmack Posted January 27, 2010 Posted January 27, 2010 Hi all... Is there any way to explode or break down a text into individual lines? ... Currently, when I engrave text on a part in a CNC program i've traced the text in AutoCAD with lines in order to generate the code in a CAM software... I draw all of my parts in AutoCAD and just transfer it to the CAM software when i'm done... I'm just wondering if this is possible as it would save me much time... Thanks, Chief Quote
ReMark Posted January 27, 2010 Posted January 27, 2010 Express > Text > Explode Text. You do have Express Tools loaded right? Quote
Chiefsmack Posted January 27, 2010 Author Posted January 27, 2010 No, I sure don't... Trying to load it now... Chief Quote
ReMark Posted January 27, 2010 Posted January 27, 2010 I just checked my version of 2004 and under Express Tools for Text it is listed as being TXTEXP. I've never had the opportunity to explode text so I can't tell you how good this particular command will work. Give it a try and see what happens. Quote
Chiefsmack Posted January 27, 2010 Author Posted January 27, 2010 I don't have access to the CD/ROM for the version of AutoCAD i'm using ... I'll have to get with my boss to see where he has it... Thanks for the help!! Chief Quote
