Vcarvz creates 3D toolpaths to carve closed shapes. It includes
corner sharpening. This is accomplished by drawing the V cutter up
from the depth of cut to the surface at the corner. It works well
for true-type text, logos, and and designs consisting of closed, non
overlapping shapes and saved in a DXF file. It automatically
handles "island" conditions in which shapes are fully enclosed within
others, and alternates the carved in and carved outines cutting.

Output is 3D DXF or Vector PLC.
