Question Help Convert .dfx to g-code please?

Hello,

I have a .dfx file that I created that basically runs my cnc-router in a zig-zag motion and each time it steps over and zags back it drops the router bit another .004 inches.

I'm pretty new to CNC's and G-Code and I'm useing MACH 3 to run my CNC.

I've attached the .dfx file, can anyone please help me convert it to g-code? Or is there a program that will easily do that for me? I tried LazyCam but I'm not having any luck with it.

Thanks!
Jason
