joao56777 Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 HI, how can i match the text with a ortogonal reference to follow a curvature. I need this to a laser cut of a curve sheet of metal that i need to put the symbol. Did you help me? MAIPEX SYMBOL.dwg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReMark Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 (edited) I think you would have to space the individual letters around the face of the curve first then extrude after which I would use the Interfere command. An example using a single letter. If I have time later on I'll do a word of similar character count as yours.

Good morning, I understand what you made and i already think about this way. But the autocad doesnt have the property to match the ortogonal line on a curve?

ReMark Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 It's AutoCAD it isn't Inventor. Maybe I'm mistaken about the procedure but I am not mistaken that this topic has been covered before here at CADTutor. In fact, I may have even participated. None-the-less it might prove beneficial to you searching the forum for similar threads. In the meantime I'll think on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
