Dear Maker, can you please tell me that why the DXF file I import gets scaled by 10 times than of the original size? also the object in the gcode never appears in pronterface but opens in online gcode viewer where I noticed that the object is out of the work area and is way bigger in dimensions. I've seen few people using DFX2Gcode for making vinyl stickers using 3d printer and decided to give it a go but after tweaking with the parameters for a week I finally gave up and I am really disappointed that I can not use such a great software.Reply from dxf2gcodePosted 2025-04-08

Hi - I have been using dxf2gcode for several months now and I am really glad I found this little jewel. I have a demand for those who wrote this code: - Would it be possible to have the default units (mm or inches) in the options ? I work in mm but at the onset the software defaults to inches. - The software inserts an M5 between shapes, just to turn the spindle back on two lines further down. Yet the M5 turns my frequency converter off. Till now I have been editing the G-code to remove the M5s but I was wondering if the M5s were a "must have" or just there for no real purpose (the spindle being definitively turned off at the end of the program). Again, thank you for sharing this piece of software. Anselm

Thanks. I use your G-code generator for everything on my little homebuilt CNC.

Maybe I am missing something but why is everything still in mm's after setting everything to inches ?

Thank you very much for the program under a free open source license!
