TRUE Single Line Text - Now in Lightburn!!

LightBurn 2.0 Just Made a Huge Leap — It Now Supports Single Line Fonts' OPF Fonts for TRUE Single Line Text!
I’ve been dreaming of this for a long time — and it’s finally here.
With the release of LightBurn 2.0, the software now offers native support for TRUE single line fonts using my exclusive OPF font format. This is an exciting, long-awaited breakthrough that’s going to transform how laser users design and engrave text.
Until now, only two scrapbook programs could render OPF fonts correctly. While that’s been helpful for card makers, pen plotters, and paper crafters, LightBurn’s adoption of OPF support is a huge win for laser users — and something we’ve all been waiting for.
💥 Why It Matters
Single line fonts — also called sketch pen fonts, monoline, hairline, or stick fonts — are designed to be drawn with a single continuous stroke. Unlike regular fonts that get outlined or filled, these are clean and efficient from the start.
That means:
✔️ One pass with your laser
✔️ No outlines or double lines
✔️ No converting to paths
✔️ Just perfectly clean, professional results — fast
✨ What’s OPF?
OPF stands for Open Path Font — a special stroke-based format I created specifically for plotters, engravers, and laser machines that follow lines instead of filling shapes. It’s ideal for scoring, sketching, and engraving.
And now, with LightBurn 2.0, you can use OPF fonts directly inside your design — no tricks, no workarounds.
🛍 Every One of My Fonts Includes OPF
I’ve created a growing collection of 59 single line fonts, and each one includes an OPF version ready for LightBurn.
From charming scripts to clean modern sans serifs, there’s something for every project.

Each font includes:
-
A standard version (TTF/OTF)
-
An OPF version for true stroke-based rendering
So whether you’re using LightBurn, a cutting machine, a sketch pen tool, or one of the scrapbook programs that supports OPF, you’re covered. - A thickened version for word processing programs and printing
- A FontLab Pad version

🔥 Even if you don’t currently use LightBurn…
This update may be the reason to make the switch. Being able to type directly in LightBurn and get true single line results — with no extra steps — saves time and unlocks precision that simply wasn’t possible before.

Hello Leslie,
I couldn’t find any information about whether Lightburn V2.0 supports OPF fonts and how to use them. I would appreciate any explanation.
