Hi all
New to AD so please be gentle! Hope you are able to help with what I think is a simple query!!
It might help to give a bit of background as to how I use AD before I explain my query
My business designs and manufactures wooden engraved signs and wall art, using a CNC router. The CNC router uses software called Vcarve pro which is CAD vector-based software which spits out code to control the machine. The Vcarve CAD software is good, however doesn't have many of the typography design features that AD has.
Therefore use AD to design (fairly) simple black and white 2D designs, which I then export as EPS to import into Vcarve.
The issue I have is that I have used some dashed lines (curves?) in AD, however when I export as EPS and then import the design into Vcarve, it shows a simple line. There is some other spurious stuff too, but most of that is editable in Vcarve, however I'm struggling to re-create the dashed lines....!!
Would anybody have any idea why this is happening, and how I could resolve it?
Would also appreciate any input on the recommended export settings, given that all I need is vector information? Generally all I use is text / fonts, and some simple lines and other imported vector graphics.
I've attached the AD file here, alongside a screenshot of Vcarve to show the issue.
Any help much appreciated!
