This article explains how to export a toolpath to a job file in Vectric.
Once you create toolpaths, you can export them into a job file. You can also have a file with toolpaths already created. Click on Toolpath on the right hand side of the Vectric screen.
You will see a list of created toolpaths.
If the check box next to a toolpath is ticked Vectric will show a preview of this toolpath. Tick on the check box next to Toolpath to select/deselect all the toolpaths.
In this example we will only export a single toolpath into a job file.
Select the toolpath name, this will highlight in blue
