    someone would need a little more info. than that. do you need someone to do a program for you, because you can import the dxf file dirtectly into FC and then program from that.

    open a dxf file in featurecam

    From within Featurecam open your dxf file. Accept the file as is. After the file has been opened. Draw a box around the drawing you want. It should be highlighted in red. Right click and Hide selected. Once you have hide this draw another box around evewrything else and delete it. Go back and now show all. Make sure you do not have any line snips outside your shape. You are now ready to use your stock wizzard.
