tpaulso,
Don't know if this will help you as I use acad for my cad program, but here goes anyway:})
For "block" letters, I use the simplex.shx and for script, I use scripts.shx as the text styles. These are "single line" fonts and as such, you should be to engrave with them like you want as there is only a single line for each letter. Simply do a cut with no offset to the depth you want. Works for me at least:})
