First let me say thank you for any and all replies to this question.
I am trying to import any vector drawing into Corel 12 and generate an output drawing that has nodes on a equally spaced basis based on the level of detail in the individual areas of the vector drawing. I need to export that vector drawing as a .dxf or .eps that I can use in ArtCam. Is this something that Corel 12 is capable of doing? Nothing I have tried has worked well, so I won't muddy the waters by throwing out what I have done. I have used Corel 7,9, and 12 and have used Corel since 2001. I currently use Corel 12 only so if one of the older versions will do what I need please advise. Using Win XP with a p4 and 2 gb. of ram.
Some background: I have added a modification to my PRT Shopbot to make it do Tin Punch, and need the vector drawings to allow me to make accurate punches. I will need to break the drawing into sections, so I can add more nodes where more detail is needed and fewer nodes where less detail is needed. All the hardware is in place, and the modification done to the ArtCam post processor to allow proper code to be generated for the machine.
My ultimate goal is to photograph a subject, vectorize and ultimately make a tin punch of scene, person, or thing.
Thanks again for any help you may be able to offer.
