In this video I will show you how to apply SOLIDWORKS Stick Fonts so that we can output single line geometry for laser Engraving, Water Jet, or Computer Numerical Control (CNC) machining. This long-time requested feature for an open, single line font has been fulfilled.

The font that you will need to select within your sketched text is “OLFSimpleSansOC”.
