For the shape to rout, it must be a joined polyline, circle or rectangle.
This will need to be on a layer named.......rotor3 for 3mm deep,
rotor1P5 for 1.5mm deep and so on.
For a drill, draw a circle the EXACT diameter of your drill bit.
This will need to be put on a layer named......vertical10 for 10mm deep hole,
vertical4.2 for 4.2mm deep hole.
After all this is done, make sure you move the origin to the lower left corner
of the rectangle that represents the panel.
You can now save the dxf as R12 dxf set optons to choose objects. Then pick
the objects you want to save.
This is a very basic biesse dxf setup. There are other things that can be controlled
in the layer name also, such as rot speed, feed speed, tool correction, etc.
Hope this gets you started
