Hello, could you clarify what you mean by " single thickness "?

If I understand correctly what you're looking for, which is single-stroke fonts, you won't find any in TrueType, since TT fonts are shapes and not paths.
In fact, these are SHX fonts that you need. Yes, like the ones in AutoCAD.

Here's a link to the author of a pack of such fonts, at Lightburn:

Edit: In order for them to be readable by SolidWorks, they must be converted to DXF. From AutoCAD I guess, or via LightBurn.

For laser engraving, look for single-line or stick fonts rather than regular fonts, since regular fonts can make the laser trace both sides of each letter. Try Hershey fonts or the single-line fonts available in SolidWorks first. Just make sure the font works with your laser software before engraving.
