This photo might help your understanding ->. I can also do what's called Raster engraving, which is the same process that a printer uses, without the ink (basically printing an image line-by-line).

My first machine, the laser cutter/engraver, I use to actually "cut" paper, cardstock, fabric, vinyl sticker material, and some other paper based stuff. and make a set of replacement aluminum gears! I love CNC stuff. I could use the 3D printed gears to drive the machine. And yes, I have also 3D printed the gears, which I may end up doing in the end for all of them. I wanted to cut the gear profiles out of paper as a sort of prototyping process as I designed them, to see how they fit the drive belt. My plight with Inkscape was to accurately cut CAD drawings, instead of "outlining" and cutting a bitmap image, which is great from an artistic standpoint, but not for precise, practical cuts. I've built a machine, and while I wait for parts upgrades to arrive, I've using my time to of course build a separate machine.

LibreCad, which appears to be a derivative of QCad (tested on Linux, also available for Windows and macOS, download at ) works, however, and is free (both as in licence and in gratis). This proves difficult, as it appears that the free version of QCad does not support format conversion to release 13 format of dxf (unlike the statement made by the extension error message). convert your dxf file to be able to edit in Inkscape. edit the file dxf_input.py or replace by attached, unpacked file, to get rid of localization error, and still get appropriate warnings.
