I am just starting out with Pycam and wanted to do a quick test of the program using inkscape. I keep getting the above error. I think it may be my error in set up or something. Any tips?
PyCam 0.5.1.1
inkscape .48
Windows 7
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
Even PyCam 0.5.1.1 is still one of the best G-Code path generators available today.
SO... to get PyCam to work in windows (tested upto windows 10), you need:
gs955w32.exe: 9.55.0 is the LAST Ghost Script supported by PStoEDIT (addresses DXF error)
pstoeditsetup_win32.exe: 3.78 latest available
inkscape-0.92.5-x64.msi: light weight release (newer versions work)
pycam-0.5.1.1_standalone.exe: Star of the show :)
(you "might" also need VC_redist.x86.exe=Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable )
