/* Version 4 |
Added bold property bold=0 (not bold) bold=1(bolder by 1.1) bold=2(bolder by 1.2) |
Added support for font selection (default is Letters.dxf) |
Added WriteCube module |
Added Rotate for text (rotates on the plane of the text) |
Added writesphere |
Added space= (spacing between characters in char widths) def=1 |
Added writecylinder() |

(The file TestWrite.scad gives More usage examples) |
(This module requires the file Letters.dxf to reside in the same folder) |
(The file Letters.dfx was created with inkscape..Each letter is in its own layer) |
(This module seperates each letter in the string and imports it from Letters.dfx) |
