Hello.

Once again i need your help...

After a fresh install of Ubuntu 12.04 and of linuxcnc 2.6 now everything works fine...

But after reading here some G Code generators i tried to use dxf2gcode, i think that i have everyhing installed from python to run the program...

But when i open linuxcnc and open the (dxf2gcode.py) i have this error:

filipe@Vaio-VPCEH3K1E:~/Transferências/source$ ./dxf2gcode.py
(PyQt4.QtCore.QString(u'dxf2gcode_pt_PT'), './i18n')

UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xc3 in position 21: ordinal not in range(128)

ASCII charactors are from 0x00 to 0x7F

A charactor 0xc3 has been detected as per the error message.
However I am not sure if this is something you have put through it or an internal error.

Try using dxf2gcode on the commandline and make sure it works properly before trying to use it through linuxcnc

You can't do that, they are system files, you only get 1 error because it did not get far enough for more of them.

What cncbasher meant was make sure you dont have spaces in your file names, also ensure they were not created with a windows editor.

My mistake on erasing ( _ ) :whistle:

Tried to do from begining..
But no luck..
The same errors...

Did like this:

Download the source: 2014-02-12-DXF2GCODE_PyQt4_beta_source.rar 2014-02-12 348.5 kB

Put the folder in:
/home/filipe/Downloads

Then follow the instalation from wiki all the steps (1,2,3)
[code.google.com/p/dxf2gcode/wiki/Installation

Reboot Pc...
Tried on terminal:

./dxf2gcode.py

But no luck....

Python is not a compiled language so re-booting is not needed. I assume the directory where you put the .py file is not the same one that you issued the command in so nothing happened. The directions on the wiki say to put the files where ever you want. Your using 12.04 so I can offer no more help on trying to run the .py file other than you have to be in the same directory when you do ./filename.py in a terminal.

In the terminal i go to the folder where the is the dxf2gcode..

Go to folder "source" then execute the command..

Terminal:

filipe@Vaio-VPCEH3K1E:~/Transferências/source$ ls

config
d2gexceptions.py
dxf2gcode.py
DxfImport
i18n
make_exe.py
PostPro
Core
d2gexceptions.pyc
dxf2gcode_pyQt4_ui
Gui
images
make
_pylupdate4_dxf2gcode.py
postpro_config

filipe@Vaio-VPCEH3K1E:~/Transferências/source$ ./dxf2gcode.py

This is correct right?

After the command appears the error..

Yes, that is correct and from the highlighting the file looks to be executable.

What happened after this command?

filipe@Vaio-VPCEH3K1E:~/Transferências/source$ ./dxf2gcode.py
