Unfortunately my LaserCutter only accepts the following formats: dwg, dxf. cdr, ai, top, step
Does your lasercutter need annotation in the DXF? I imagine that they are only interested in contours. Adding linework that is not part of the contour may actually be undesirable. It may confuse the software they use.
I agree. If the Lasercutter accept even *.ai files, that are a proprietary standard by Adobe, that it's essentially, I presume, vector based, the limitation is in the SW of the Lasercutter, because with a simple vector SVG it's perfect to say something about a laser contour cut. Are you really sure that your Lasercutter don't accept standard SVGs?
Anyway it remain the problem of sending annotated 2D source projects to others that are not using FreeCAD, because *.DXF, right now, as said, it's not a good interchange format to get these information (annotation) rather then basic geometry lines.
