    Problem importing DXF to Plasmacam

    Hello,

    I'm using CorelDraw to export a DXF file, then import it to PlasmaCAM. If looks good when first imoprting it, but when I perform a 'Conver to Cut Path', I get a lot of broken segments. Is this normal?

    Thanks,

    - Bill

    CorelDRAW exports DXF files as a polyline which is all line segments. Please try the DXFTool V2 for CorelDRAW. You can download a FREE trial copy at http://www.coreldrawtools.com - I am the author of this tool and can answer any questions you may have.
