Front Panel Designer: using an HPGL file to create a scale

Hello,

I'm working on a panel design using Front Panel Designer. I'd like to add a scale for each of my knobs with numbers from 0 to 10.

I've been experimenting with Scale-o-matic (url below) and think I have finally created a scale I like. My only concern is that the numbers might not come out well when engraved by FPD. I've chosen the Courier font as it looks like it will be engraved the best when using a .02mm engraving too.

Has anyone used the Scale-o-matic website for their Front Panel Designer panel? Were you happy with the results?

Here is the Scale-o-matic website:

thanks in advance,
Chris
