## Introduction

The Pencil Engraving Template is designed to align and engrave text onto pencils using the jig created by the [Jig Generator](https://cuttle.xyz/@bwente/Jig-Generator-Exporter-faS6dOJljjgv). By copying the configuration from the jig generator and inputting a list of names or phrases, this tool generates an SVG file that aligns the text perfectly to the jig for engraving.

## Instructions

1.  **Paste Jig Configuration**:
    
    -   Copy the configuration from the Jig Generator.
        
        ![](https://cuttle-uploads.imgix.net/156/fc2199bde06fd32e6ed1686f3743d91ffb45971acc64610b4ca9950da271e29d.png?auto=compress,format&q=80&fit=max&width=700&height=1280&dpr=1)
        
    -   Paste the configuration into the `jigConfig` parameter in this template.
        
2.  **Input Names or Phrases**:
    
    -   Enter the list of names or phrases you want to engrave on the pencils.
        
    -   Choose the desired font size and type for the text.
        
3.  **Generate File**:
    
    -   The tool will recreate the layout and spacing of the jig based on the pasted configuration.
        
    -   It will align the text to the jig, ensuring perfect placement for engraving.
        
4.  **Export and Engrave**:
    
    -   Turn off the preview mode.
        
    -   Export the generated file.
        
    -   Use the exported file with the board outline to match up with the jig board.
