Hi guys ….my Estlcam text has stopped working! I believe this is because i need to up grade my laptop software …..I design using BricsCAD, but Im not sure how to formate the wording/ lettering so Estlcam recognises it! Can someone help me please ?

Letters are not usable for the CAM because they are in another format. Either use the text tool in Estlcam or explode the fonts in your CAD.
I’m not sure about the BricsCAD tool, but many vector based programs have a “object to path” option, that makes shapes that are not vector based into vectors - which is necessary for the CAM.
When I do text in CAD, I then project the surface as a DXF in the next feature. That should do all the conversion for you.
