#File input to cambam software#

Free CNC Software and Free CAM software available. So what i am asking from you all is a little guidance on a tool chain you recommend for what i am trying to do. CamBam CNC software, best value for money, feature rich, CNC Software for G-Code generation on CNC Routers, CNC Mills, Homemade CNC machines, for 2D pocketing, 2D profiling, Text Engraving, Photo Engraving and 3D carving. Your Python toolbelt now includes the ability to print to a file, a frequent task in scripting. I was able to get an STL but it did not plot at all. Most text files these days use UTF-8 encoding, but some other common ones are ISO-8859 (iso-8859-1), UTF-16 (utf16), or Windows-1252 (cp1252). I have tried several 2d to STL converters and have had mixed results. I have tried png out of gEDA to SVG out of inkscape to an attempt to extrude it in the Z axis and save it with Blender into an STL and slice that STL. Ideally my end goal is to export an image(jpg or png) from a PCB editing software and plot it with an extra fine tip sharpie onto copper-clad. xml file (text files) in the tools folder of the CamBam system folder. This backup will be automatic if the menu option Tools/Save settings on exit is checked. The form-handler is specified in the forms action attribute.

The form-handler is typically a file on the server with a script for processing input data. Unrecognised file extensions are presumed to be GCode files.

Most of the info in the wiki is quite outdated and searching the forums for 'pen', 'plotter' etc, yield very few (if any) results. Libraries will also be saved by using the CamBam Tools/Save settings menu command. The defines a button for submitting the form data to a form-handler. CamBam can read the following drawing file types.

I have seen videos on youtube of people plotting with reprap, and i have asked for info in the comments and have not received much love. Most of what i have found is not geared towards the typical printing toolchain, and is more geared towards EMC2 controlled machines. I keep getting this alarm when I try to load from USB.

I've omitted some special characters from notes, omitted spaces in case I had one where I shouldn't, etc. I do have the beginning and end '', which is what Haas suggests the problem is. I just want to preface this post by saying that i have searched the interwebs far and wide in search of an easy way take an image file and generate gcode for plotting on my printer.
