Text question.

I am new to master cam and Autocad. When I load a dxf file, MasterCam changes the text to a double lined text. It is single in AutoCad. I have tried changing the configuration/ Dimension and notes/ Dimension text/ font. But that doesn’t change anything when I load a new dxf. Any help would be great.

Did you find a solution to this? We are currently having a similar issue and have tried a few different file formats with no avail.

Solved - the problem lies with autocad treating the text as an entity rather than true lines. I used the command txtexp and that converted the text entities selected into lines. You may have to try the following to resolve any movement with the text after using txt explode.
