What system you need your fonts to be in. I think I have some font's that are single line.
Mamba has some single line fonts (at least one)... These are special fonts from Medialas.
well mine uses the fronts from MS word.
i ahve installed some new fonts but it displays everything double thickness still
Sounds like your software traces the fonts you have so there may not be anything you can do about it.
poo DAC, im so gona upgrade when i have the cash
Well, unless you need to type the stuff in real time you could always create the text in ILDA files with some other program and then use them that way.
but what program???
LDS or Phoenix Demo.
Demo only limits laser output but rest of the software if fully functional. Picture Editor can import and export ILDA.
can i make the wording in those program and just save it as an .ild file so i can play it on my software?
Yes you can. Import/Export of ILDA have no restrictions.
great, im assuming these are freeware?? do you have a link??
They are fully functional DEMOs!. http://www.bocatec.de/download/PHOENIX-DEMO.zip
Hmm what else can you use....Fiesta! http://www.lasershow.sk/Fiesta/fiestainstall.zip
It has picture editor called Quazar 2 with ILDA output. Same like before....everything works except laser output.
Hello i tested today some fonts that come in default installation of Win7 Pro with Moncha (and a pair of fine tuned CT6215 scanners :rolleyes: ), here a list of them that do a decent framerate even with 2 lines per 11 characters on point density set to 50 (there is a bit of distortion but it's acceptable)
Berlin Sans
Bernard MT
Comic Sans
Cooper
Forte
Freestyle Script
Goudy Old Style
Harlow Solid
High Tower Text :)
Kristen ITC
OCR A
Poor Richard
Segoe Print :)
Those two marked with a :) smiley do a fine job, in the end Segoe Print is the most recommended of them
my own stick40 font for 3ds max off course :)
It does not work on word.
but does work on LD2000
it's truetype but single line.
Works great for CNC machines too :)

Does not work for Moncha... but it is rather a moncha related problem then it is with the font itself.
Nope it does not trace them
Truetype fonts are made so they always need to end and close.
There are no real single line truetype fonts.
This has always been a problem.
My stick40 font is the closest you can come to a single line truetype font.
The lines are so close to eachother 3ds max sees it as a one line font.
However due to outlines of the font being so close together.
Other software like microsoft word does not like it if you try and use the Stick40 font.
But that is not where I intended it for :)
It's of use for CNC machine software which accept truetype fonts for text, so you can do single line text
and for 3ds max.
These will display and also translate them to a single line font :)
I'm very happy with the result.
Hee PJ,
Can i give those Stick40 fonts a try on my CNC machine ?
Thanks man, i will try them
hmm I got an email that you werent able to find it :)
seems like your post is removed so I assume you found it?
