Vector does a great job of importing .dxf files from other CAD programs. You
can then use the CAM function on it. You may also want to take a look at
DeskCNC ( www.KTMarketing.com/DeskCNC ) as it is primarily a CAM program
with the windows controller as an option. In CAM only there is either
shareware like ACE Converter or more pricy things like Visual Mill 4. With
the Group discount you can buy Vector for a fraction of the cost of Visual
Mill. I am not up on the import capabilities of Dolphin, but it would likely
fill the bill also.
