Flat DXF
Create a DXF file that can be read into any
CAD system that accepts DXF information.
SURFCAM will output the image on the screen
into a 2D file that can be sent to a 2D or 3D CAD program. When the data
is read in, it will appear on the screen exactly the same way it appeared
in SURFCAM when the file was made even though the data itself is not 3D
data. The data file created will be in the 2D plane only. In order to
achieve this, SURFCAM breaks the projected image into 2D lines in the
current view. This creates files with only lines in them. |
