I can export pictures in DXF format to my cam software with zero problems, but when I try to bring in text after building the cut in inkscape it does not show up in my coreo build software, I can see the file there is just nothing there and shows no dimension.

You need to make it a path, high light the text and click on object to path then save. :)
