Cutting inside the line

I am using ABViewer to convert my cad drawings to gcode and I need to cut inside the lines on some and outside the line on others. At the moment it is cutting in the middle of the line which means that it is 2mm of on all the lines as I am unsing a 4mm bit. Any advice would be appreciated.

Hello,

You may try to set tool radius compensation for a given contour. The Off (G40) option discards tool radius compensation. The Leftward (G41) option compensates tool radius on the left of the trajectory. The Rightward (G42) option compensates tool radius on the right of the trajectory.
