I do not have art cam or any other cutting/design program, but to take a stab at it,. sounds like missing the post processor or incorrect one. If Greg comes online he would likely know for sure, for me it's just a guess.

All of my designs are just the grayscale images I create and use Ipicture to convert files for carving. I use a program referenced elsewhere on the forum called GIMP which stand for Graphic Image Manipulation Program. There is quite the learning curve to create the images but once you get it, it all gets fairly easy.

Are you trying to read a gcode file with artcam? if so that wont work you should have a file that was your work file and that one can do a simulation cut. There are a few free programs that will test run a gcode file for you one is named simply kirk.exe |
