I'll do a screen shot when I get a sec
Hi all
I'm new to Laser (built and using CNC router for years)
I've just bought the chineese 50w 30cmx50cm laser machine.
It came with RDCAM V8
but the manual on disk is V6, the printed one is V3 !
I'm after a copy of the manual for V8, to match the software.
If not .. 1st question, vector cutting
Double click layer
set speed and power
set "cut"
At the bottom is a box to select cut through...
All the above is in the manual
But .. under that check box is another "through cut power" which defaults to 50%
This isn't mentioned in the old manuals, so I'd like to know the effect this variable has on the output cut.
Thanks in advance
Rich

Is there any way to import a vector file at the original size it was created?
When I import as a .dxf into RDcam v6 shrinks the vector file to a very small size. I would like to be able to adjust to engraving an image then cutting the outline within the same file. Is that possible?

Is the DXF in inches or MM when I import MM it is the correct size so I always export my drawings as MM

How!? Are your running RDCAM on Ubuntu? Did you use the Stefan Schuermans method?
I'm trying to use Inkscape with RDPlug (the Corel/AI/Cadian/AutoCAD plugin). I've done some research on my GitHub repository here (https://github.com/crushedice2000/RDCAM). However I'm not a expert in reverse engineering. I want to rewrite RDCAM as a GPL project. (without copying RD code, but only rewriting from scratch).
