Laser Cutter/Exporting DXF from Adobe Illustrator

From London Hackspace Wiki

To get the exported .dxf file to import at the correct size into the laser cutter software, the "Artwork Scale" in the .dxf options must be set to "1 Inch = 1 Unit".

To get text to import properly into the laser cutter software, the text must first be expanded, Object menu -> Expand. Then the word must be ungrouped.
