mono-line text

[supertramp]

How do you write mono-line text (I mean without the perimeter line for each character)? in nx I have to use the modern font instead with if st5 I can not find a single-line font.

hoping that you are not all on holiday thank you in advance! :wink:

I'm at work but I didn't understand your question :tongue:, could you upload an image of what you do with nx?

a customer asks me for monoline writings like the nx.jpg file I can with solidedge do only write with double line (se.jpg) where each character is composed of two lines. as I write badly would say crock! :redface:

I think it's not possible, as if then with that text profile it extrudes us, and if the extrusion profile is open, it can't.

Do you have to dig with that text? or just put a sketch on the 3d model?

You should also say how you did it, otherwise it's not very useful.

I expected a supertramp confirmation to explain the procedure,otherwise my explanation was wrong.......:smile:
However the procedure is the following with solid edge v20:
menu pmi---> we require, in the recall property window, type the desired text with its settings, select the director and select the plan or better the face on which to put the text!This procedure has been made for the word "small axe"!
for the writing bb was made with "reference frame" always from the pmi menu.
for the other writing instead was made with "pallonatura" always from the pmi menu.
I hope I was useful!

I'm sorry I'm late, but despite the festive period I couldn't answer first.
the writings I need to project them on the face and must be exportable in igs or in step to be able to work on cam. double-profile letters require a brushing milling that makes the customer waste time. single-profile writings are performed for tracking and are much faster to perform.
from the evidence that the colleague did, however, the pmi would be written not exportable so they are not good.
the only solution I found is to export from nx a vocabulary of texts with single profile that then from solidedge will be imported into a sketch and then be scaled and projected to need.
thanks cmq of interest
Have a good day!

the main problem is that solid edge uses windows fonts for all texts.
windows fonts are in truetype format and truetype fonts are not made by lines but by "closed areas".
Therefore we will always have the double line.

there are fonts where the double line is practically overlapping creating the monoline effect.
engraving software are usually smart enough to recognize these situations and hack the line once.

But you should try and tell us what comes out of it.

attached some of these fonts.

hello we are trying your fonts but we can't use them. I put them in both windows and solidedge fonts folder. made double clock on each of them and I installed them. If I open word I can use them, but solidedge doesn't make them appear on the font list. Where am I wrong?
