I need to set the line weight to 0.01MM, however there does not seem to be any way to do this. Can the line weight be set to something other than the ones that come with qcad. I need these small weights to generate laser cutting drawings.
Thanks.

I tired the 00 weight, but I need weight of .01 and that is not offered, nor is there any place to let me insert a valuel
Re: Custom Line weight
Hi is this for Epilog machines?
Re: Custom Line weight
Not sure what an Epilog machine is. I send the drawing to a company on-line from a company named Ponoko. They need all the laser cut lines set to .01 MM.
Thanks.
Thanks.
Re: Custom Line weight
Do they accept a DXF / DWG file for processing? The problem is that lineweights of 0.01mm are not supported by the DXF/DWG format at all (which is the reason QCAD does not support such custom line weights either).ov10fac wrote:They need all the laser cut lines set to .01 MM.
Re: Custom Line weight
Yes, they do support dxf format. i will check with the company to see what the dxf format rules are. Thank you

Re: Custom Line weight
Ahh light bulb. I've been sending them inkscape drawings, which need line width of .01. I just assumed the same for dxf.
Guess I should have read all the documentation. Many thanks.
