If you email one of your files to - support@vectric.com we can
take a look to see what format is required.

Hi Dan,
I guess it is late to reply but I am using Dolphin CAD/CAM and have found the engraving easy to use with lots of options and a lot of fonts including simple stick fonts. You can find Dolphin CAD/CAM for less than the limit you have mentioned on eBay, but the prices are increasing. I have used the Dolphin PartMaster program for engraving in steel, delrin, and aluminum with very good results.
Regards,
Wes

I have looked a VCarve Pro and am not really happy with it due to the lack of a stick type font. Wonderful software otherwise it appears, just missing the font requirements.

I have looked at a couple of website that include http://www.2linc.com/ as well as http://www.deskam.com/deskengrave.html. I wasn't to excited about deskengrave, and didn't see a trial for the other software at 2lincs website.

So has anyone else got any other suggestions as far as software? Would like to keep the price at under $500.00 if possible.

Thanks

Dan

Quick note to mention that VCarve Pro 4 does now include a range of 'Stick and Single Stroke' fonts. The Trial version can be used to experiment with these options.
