Hi...
I tried to search through the forum but I'm a newbe w.r.t. the proper terms and had trouble with my key words.
Going on, at one point I remember being able to cut from inkscape sessions which included text objects. But now it's not working. I think the problem is with the post script files generated by inkscape.
I am using a (little known?) utility called graphtecprint that I've modified for my own purposes. I am familiar with what it can do. Looking at the inkscape generated post script output I am sure graphtecprint can not handle a section of the post script file which starts with "/sfnts [". This is followed by several thousand bytes of what looks like pure hex (in ascii format).
What I need are the cutting commands! I need inkscape to output instructions to cut the letter "A" just like it outputs instructions to cut a box or a circle.
----------
Another subject, printing to pipes. This feature saved me a lot of time and made placing utilities like graphtecprint between inkscape and the physical world easy. With out the inkscape printing to pipes feature I have to first print to a file. Are there any plans to put this feature back into inkscape?
...thanks
