    Help Converting Image to g-code

    I am using Lazycam to import an image, then want to generate g-code for mach3 mill. When I try to convert the image using spiral or xy/yx, the resulting import is empty, meaning there is only data to move the x/y, and no data to move z. If I look at the properties of the resulting file, the depth is set to zero......

    If I select the drill pattern, it works, any ideas?

    Thanks!

    Go to edit in notepad and use find and replace z0. To desired depth
