That would even be better actually, then you could use most any font out there. Even if there was a way to have the cutter follow the centreline of the font, that would work also, but so far there is no such routine to do that. The closest that I can find are some really narrow fonts, but they are still not defined by a single line, they are still a double line with a very narrow width, and this doesnt work, your cutter will still follow both lines. I have spent several hours looking at one time or the other. this font works fine, except the rounded portions of the letters are still defined by very short straight line segments - but as I am finding now - ALL fonts seem to be designed the same way, none of them have arcs that define the curves, at the best the curves are defined by splines, which as you guessed it, are defined by many short straight line segments. The closest that I have found so far are the single line fonts used in Autocad such as the Romans font. These fonts are fine for Vcarving but when you merely want to engrave a single letter, one pass they dont work. Most fonts are all designed with a width to the font, straight curvy, varying width etc. The problem that we (I) have been having was that I wanted a single line font for engraving, whereby you could use any cutter, Vbit, ball nose or whatever and it would trace only the single line of each letter, the same way you would write with a pen. There are some free demo files available, but unfortunately no single line fonts for free.

So perhaps the ones from mr-clipart are worth the price if you need something like this. On this site, they have single line engraving fonts for $50 US each (they only have 6) but the kicker is that you need to also purchase their software to use them, which costs another $299 US. The only other site that I have ever found was. All the fonts could be downloaded in a few minutes, making them likely worth the price of $149 alone. You are required to register for a fee of $149 US per year, and once done, you are able to download stuff as you need it. This site offers a total of 17 single line engraving fonts, plus a pile of other stuff, I think mostly available in vector format. They are not free, but if someone is looking, perhaps it might be worth the investment. Hey guys, I have found a source of single line engraving fonts on the net.
