Since CAM software deals with toolpaths, machine code (G-code), and 3D models, the file is likely one of the following with a mistakenly renamed .ttf extension:

The tool must trace both sides of every single letter, lifting and plunging repeatedly. For a part serial number or a small piece of text, this causes massive inefficiencies. The tool must trace both sides of every
