    DXF Import

    OK guys I give up, where have you hidden the DXF Import page?
    I'm trying to import a simple AutoCAD drawing in DXF format, according to the Mach 3 manual the DXF Import page is in the file menu, not in mine it aint.
    What am I doing wrong?

    Hi Martin,
    In Mach3 click the 'File' tab on the menu bar, then in the list that drops down select the 'Lazy Cam' option. When Lazy Cam loads click 'File' and then click 'Open Vector File' to import the .dxf file, and you will be able to work on the toolpaths prior to saving the file as a g-code file to use as a program. Hope this helps you.
    Regards,
    Wes
