Lettering Question
Thanks for letting me join I have what is probably a stupid question but can I change the way the letters are carved? Presently it carves outside the letters but I would like it to carve inside but keep it carving the maple leaf as it does? Pleas help

Hi Dave Kin,
Unfortunately, you haven't stated what Carveco product you're working in (for example, Carveco Maker+), which toolpaths you've already created and calculated within your model, or shared any images showing your current set of results.
Once you've created vectors from your bitmap image, you can create different toolpaths based on those vectors. If you want to create a V-Bit Carving or Bevel Carving toolpath for your text, you'll first need to create a closed vector for each of the letters in your shared design.
Please browse through and watch the demonstration videos available from our Carveco Training portal so that you can get some ideas on how to approach the vectors and toolpaths required to machine your piece in the way that you've described: https://learn.carveco.com/
Thanks for your time and consideration.
