    I use Corel Draw to vectorize it.
    The creative process is like the phoenix that reborns in an eternal cycle...

    Some .pdf files are already in vector format, and can be easilly converted to .dxf. If you have a CAD or CAM program that can read .pdf files. V Carve Pro and Aspire can.

    Others are in raster format, and must use a raster to vector converter.
