Who are you addressing that to?

A "wire EDM machine" appears to be a Wire EDM (electrical discharge machining) which uses an electrically energized thin brass wire to slice through metal - including difficult-to-machine metals.

The compatible materials are: Steel, super alloys, titanium, aluminum, brass, and most metals.
I don't see TAPE mentioned. My guess anything like these plastic tapes might catch fire in a Computer Aided Machine (CAM) as this.

As for those file types or formats, I have found,
DXF = AutoDesk Drawing Interchange Format
DWG = AutoCAD drawing

Who here has said anything about any CAD program?

Now, if you were talking to me, I have no files regarding the letters I cut out. I just put the reflective tape in the indents and used an Xacto blade to cut to the edges of the letters. It took about an hour for all the letters, taking my time.
