pdf to dfx for laser cutting problems
Transfering pdf files to Inkscape to save as dfx files so I can clean up any excess lines in CAD (AutoCAD). All loops turned into regions. But when I open the dfx file in the laser software I keep winding up with extra lines and data in the plot image. When I go back into the dfx file or its dwg in CAD none of the extra data appears when I do a zoom/extents command. Other dfx files I've burned from my own creation do not have this issue. Something buried in the original pdf? Software glitch in the laser software? Laser is a 15 watt diode. But the extra items also appear when I do a dfx to G code and open the g code file in GRBL.
