You can specify further marking parameters for DXF or HPGL files. For HPGL files, you can
only set the marking start position. For DXF files, all parameters are available.
These settings are saved as presets for the graphic file. If you change the presets of a
graphic file, the changes apply to all marking files in which the graphic is used.
For DXF files, you can specify individual marking parameters for each marking file in the
“Marking settings” screen. To do this, set “Adjustment of size and filling” > “ON” in the
“Marking settings” screen.
