Not sure if this is the right

I got an email today regarding making some custom parts on my CS43, It was pretty vague but I think they want them cut from 3/4 plywood. They were kind enough to send me a dwg and dxf but of course they didn't work because there was no thickness. Can some one take a look at these and help me out. I ...

Re: 7 years on...

Re: Barcode Label Wrong with CN5.75

Having the same issue here.

Isn't there a fix that doesn't involve reverting back to a previous version.
