Frequently asked questions

Does Lazrit support Glowforge's Proofgrade materials?

Material naming is yours — Lazrit's profile maps to the geometric defaults. Proofgrade tuning happens inside the Glowforge app.

Can I cut full-bed jobs from a Lazrit export?

Yes — Glowforge bed is roughly 28×20 cm. Export the SVG at the right scale and the Glowforge app will preserve it.

How does engrave map?

Engrave-layer paths come in as a separate operation. Glowforge defaults to vector engrave (line follow), not raster engrave.
