Text in Lazycam

[jw007]

I have been having a really tough time trying to accomplish a seemingly simple task. I want to create a sign that is made up completely of text, a particular font. I tried unsuccessfully to create the font in autocad and explode it then send it to lazy cam. While messing around with that I realized that I could actually create the text in Lazycam. That worked except once in Mach3, the mill moved so slow that you could not even see it move. It took all night to trace a single letter. At the top of the Gcode it says Default Foam Post. Not sure what that means or if thats the problem.

What feedrate is it running at? You need to set the feedrate in LazyCAM.
