Did you enable compensation as I described in this previous thread?

I always leave the compensation type to "Computer".

In sprut 7, this is the button to change direction or offset the cutter right or left or center of the tool path.
I would imagine its similar in sprut 9.....

Select job assignment and click this button to change.
Usually this is automatically set for the op but not always.
Engraving, the cutter will track on center
2D contour, it usually will track to the right or left of the tool path, but not always, sometimes it has to be selected for some unknown to me, reason.........
