Mike,
Mechanical engraver will require vector files. Not as easy as laser for sure. I have both and the laser is wayyyyy easier.
Good luck!

Larry,
Thanks. I hope we are able to figure it out pretty easy. We will probably just use it for name plates, brass, and Frank's tags...we wanted something to take to swap meets, craft shows, etc. and something we could do the traditional door knockers or other brass items with. We will see how it works out.
Mike

Hi Mike .... you will see after you have your machine the pros and cons of using ttf files vs single/multi line fonts. The diversity of ttf files is great but the time to engrave them can be considerable. :-(
Clip art can be directly imported into your roland with dr engrave.
Have a good time with your new engraver!
