Hi grandpa jay!

The full process is here:
Translated with Google translator.

It uses Irfanview and a plugin to create the software's input picture.
It's all free and I think it's important for hobbysts.

The software's input is a 1bit black and white picture.
Depending on what resolution You want, or can machine, resize the pic.
If You can work with 0,5mm pixel distance (raster) and You want a 100x200mm final size machined picture, You will need a 200x400pixel b/w pic.
You can change the resolution and the raster size too.

Lou, that was my target, to make You try DotG.
It is free, it is available in English, and extremely easy to use.

Is there anything special that I need besides the software?
