SheetCan will do small files I think about 250 lines, no THC. you could brake up larger DFX files to separate cut operations likethe inside parts in one file then outside in another.

i believe acourtjester meant sheetcam :mrgreen: http://www.sheetcam.com/
you can download a free trial version to try it out

there is a sheetcam support forum here and on the sheetcam site
many of us use sheetcam and mach3 software because the support is awesome

not sure you can save the files in the trial version or maybe only 250 lines of code
i keep a trial version on my home pc just for checking dxf files before i email them to the shop
