We regret that due to the increase in orders on our Doors2size

site we are unable to take on new CNC jobs or projects.

Tips for Adobe Illistrator users sending files for CNC Routing.

 

  • If you can send the file as PDF as well it can be a great help.
  • Files can sometimes change when tranfered to other programs. PDF's give us a visual double check.

 

  • It's a good idea to put scale reference like a 500mm square with a dimension on the file with free flowing shapes. Some time's the scale will change when changing from Illustrator to CAD.
  • We can import Adode Illustrator, so machining directly from your files is possible.
  • If you want text machined explode the fonts to turn them in to graphics. If you send text as fonts, and we don't have your font a different one will be substituted, and your elegant font can come out as Helvetica. Again a PDF can give us a quick double check.
  • Send the your file as an Adobe Illustrator file not as a DXF.
  • If you use Illustrator to convert to DXF curves can be broken into small steps that take up a lot of space, and lose accuracy.
