    I want to make letters with my C beam XL but CAM software seems to have a bug. I click text and a window opens up I select size and font then press create and the window just goes away nothing shows up on the screen except the grid. I can make circles and rectangles but no text. I used text a few days ago and it worked fine. I am having this problem on two different computers. Please help.

    Works on some fonts, however I cannot get the Droid Serif to work in any size font. Window just disappears.

    The fonts come from Google Fonts

    If you find any that never works, let me know and we'll remove them from the list
    And if there are fonts on https://fonts.google.com/ you like and would like to add them, same thing, let me know :)

    Most people do that CAD outside of CAM, so the Insert tools doesnt get a lot of use, glad someone is using it and appreciate the help in testing it!
