Text in solidworks
(OP)
Is there any way to insert text as a sketch in solidworks? I'm trying to do this as I want to export as an stl and then into some CAM software for cnc toolpaths. I'm trying to accomplish some engraving here. Thanks!

However, it sounds like you may be looking for single-line, no thickness fonts. These have been discussed before on this forum.

I'm in assembly mode trying to use the hole wizard on a 1/8" inch plate(in editing mode) and I'm trying to line these up with a part already in the assembly. Is there any way to do this? The position tab of the hole wizard just ignores everything outside the current part being edited. Any ideas?
