Re: post processor
More info please. There's no way to know what you are doing from your post.
What CAD program are you using? What CAM program are you using? Is it drawn as a rectangle or four separate lines? There are many reasons for this but we need much more info.

Re: post processor
Sounds like the DXF lines are not connected.
You can usually open the DXF and zoom in to each corner and see the gab between lines

Re: post processor
We found the problem. in our old system there were cut rules in sheetcam that applied into the centroid post processor. we removed them and now it sees it as a single pierce.

Re: post processor
Ah yes. I've seen others run into that before.
