    Use ACE from http://www.dakeng.com, or better yet, SheetCAM. http://www.sheetcam.com

    In Corel Draw you can save the file as a DXF and open the file in BobCad. You can use the contours for 2D paths. You can also create solids for these contours. If you use BobArt you can emboss these contours. This will also allow you to put shapes along these contours to form tool paths like what you would see on a coin face. Sign makers, Grave Stone makers, Furniture makers, Mold makers, or anyone needing to place logos, designs, or pictures on a surface. www.bobcad.com

    Unhappy Dxf in bobart?

    Hi, I just got myself the bobCAD-CAM-ART package v19, there don't seem to be a way to import DXF in bobart. Not that I care but what would be the point in doing so? I'd love to understand. Thanks

    Open a DXF file

    Open the DXF file in BobCad, then open BobArt. Select the lines or contours you need to emboss on the BobCad side. Then you can select the embossing parameters on the BobArt side. Hope this helps
