Path to Gcode, or one of the other specific cutters, such as Engraving, Lathe, plasma, etc.ДЄlso, if precision is important, don't change the Scale setting in Document Properties.In general, this is the order they must be used in: As you can see, there are different extensions for different kind of cutting. The next consideration is exactly what kind of cutting you plan to do. If by chance you're already using version 1.0beta, those extensions don't work yet. If it doesn't matter, then Extensions menu > Gcodetools should work. However, I could show you a list of those extensions. The Presets tab you can change the File extension from nc to gco. In Estlcam under the Setup tab there is a CNC program generation tab you can change the way the G-Code is generated. You'll need to research that on your own. I set up Estlcam to generate G-Code that can be directly sent to Pronterface without additional editing. As far as I can tell, in some cases, certain hardware either needs certain extensions or certain extensions work better than others for that hardware. There are several to many extensions which will save or export gcode files. But in many cases, tracing it 'manually' using Inkscape's Pen tool is the best choice.ДЄfter that, it might depend on your cutting hardware which Inkscape extension you use. Depending on the image, you might be able to auto-trace using Path menu > Trace Bitmap. There are 2 ways to do that with Inkscape. So if your image is raster (JPG, PNG, maybe PDF) it will need to be converted to vector. At least not with Inkscape (although it probably is that simple with some proprietary software).ДЇirst, it has to be a vector image. It's not quite so easy as just saving a file as a gcode file.
