    Question Stiles-Building Blocks? Does anyone use it?

    I'm having a problem with getting a picture to print on the labels. It keeps printing the sample picture. I have all the information setup...just having picture problems. I am using AutoCAD DXF to import in. Any help would be appreciated, thanks. Dan

    Is the layer for that object correct?

    I figured it out. Sometimes I have to actually exit and reenter the program to get the right picture. I've learned to review the print before though. But have you noticed the nest pictures are nice crisp pictures and the single part pictures are bitmaps that don't show the tooling and are very distorted. It's junk as far as labels go. Do you know the software I'm talking about?

    Not exactly, I the best out their and what I use am Cadcode. That handles all my dxf. to g code conversation, panel optimization, barcode and label printing.

    When we were buying software not very many people talked about CadCode. So we bought building blocks. It seems though we are the minority. It seems as though there are a ton of Cadcode users out there. I use a small variation of it to produce Cnc Saw code optimizations. Not Router code.
