  • In today's episode I'm going to be showing you how to invert any graphic for laser engraving. It doesn't matter if you're using a Fiber, CO2, Diode or UV laser, Ezcad or Lightburn, this tutorial will work for you. The process is pretty simple once you get the hang of it and you'll have way more control over how your final engraving looks once you master this skill in Adobe Illustrator or any other vector editor. Enjoy!

    Also just wanted to mention that while regular text/object vectors can be engraved either way, those that have illustrations of faces and eyes (human and animal) definitely need to be invented when engraving on anodized. 😺

    1. What workspace are you using?
    2. How did you get RED lines when you selected everything?
    Im still learning ezcad and Ai.

    when i do the stroke unite method and then put it in EZ cad the catch goes crazy and makes a million lines destroying any thing that resembles the image???

      @LaserEverything  4 месяца назад

      when you exported, what AI version did you save as? be sure to use v8 when you are exporting to ezcad or it's not going to have the info structured as it needs in the file itself. If you're still having troubles after that, would strongly recommend joining one of the communities in the description where help will be easier to share.

      @@LaserEverything Ya I always save as v8. Sometimes it does it and sometimes it doesn't. Usually I can go back and choose outline and then it works fine. Will have to play with it some more. Thanks
