    Default Engraving??????

    I amhaving no luck getting MCX4 to generate a toolpath for engraving. I keep getting "open chains are ignored" I have selected my geometery with window,chain,line , surface , and partial chain geometery to no avail. My geometery is numbers that were created with the letters option in MasterCAM Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!!
