The software appears to be very clean and professional.

But I have many, many questions:

What are the conditions of the trial versions? Is this a time sensitive thing or reduced functionality or both?

From the site:
"PartMaster Level 2 Milling is a system designed to
create complete programs for NC and CNC milling
machines and machining centers. PartMaster Level
2 is completely icon driven so that no programming
language needs to be learned."

What does it create the program from - a DWG, DXF or do the parts get created within PartMaster?

Will the PartMaster allow imports? What file types is Partmaster compatable with?

What form is the output? Is it a text file?

You will either create your part in Partmaster or you can import a .DXF file.

Will the PartMaster allow imports? What file types is Partmaster compatable with?

Partmaster is only compatible with .DXF files how ever the Dolphin 3D CAM Level 2 will import a wide variety of files if you are looking for more solid and surface imports.

What form is the output? Is it a text file?

It is a text file that can be save to the extension that your particular machine calls for.

Thanks for the fast response, whoever you are!

But - you missed a question.....

Sorry for missing the question.

The trial version will not allow you to post to your machine. Basically just a good way to see the interface and get a quick view of the program. When your post is setup, that'll give you the correct info. Sorry again.
