More importantly though, all of the fonts I have tried from within Rhino are true type fonts from the Windows fonts folder and have overlapping lines, including a set of 'Cam Bam Stick Fonts” I found online.
I would like editable text but cannot seem to find functionality within Rhino for this. I am truly impressed with Rhino for a whole variety of reasons. Recently I have been using Rhino a lot more for 3d modeling. The AlphaCam fonts have an AUF file extension and the AutoCAD fonts have an SHX file extension. I cannot import the AlphaCam or AutoCAD fonts into a Windows XP font folder to use with other programs. AutoCAD also contains stick fonts which work the same way and I can import these into AlphaCam perfectly and make use of these single stroke fonts for toolpathing.
AlphaCam leaves this text in editable form until I choose to convert it to geometry. This is great for quick and dirty scratching of text on an occasional part or template and much faster than full blown engraving. These are true single line fonts that can be converted to geometry within AlphaCam and when toolpathed result in a single stroke at the router for each line. I have been running AlphaCam for years and it comes with three properly configured stick fonts.
