Drop Mike Milligan a line at Dolphin http://www.dolphin-systems.co.uk
They do a full version with 30 day license for evaluation.

By the way a warning on Capsmill.
I recently took a look at their latest product quite deeply and found
some serious bugs in the program in dxf imports and other areas. It
wasn't even able to do simple files. Their tech support was very slow
and not much help. They admitted all the bugs I pointed out but
offered no work around. When I pressed them for help believe it or
not , I still have all the emails, they offered the advise that the
best thing to do was to reformat my hard drive and reinstall windows.
At the price they want for this for a 2 1/2D program it's very
expensive.
Just beware.
