    Hello,

    Is Surfcam able to export the geometry as IGES or STEP files ?

    If so, we can import it.

    Thanks Andre, on a couple of levels...

    Id like to be able to translate it without my customer having to do it, as its an extra step for him, and he doesnt want to mess with it, so I though I'd check out if theres another way, on my end only.

    Several years ago, I bought my first seat of Dolphin mill for use on a prototrak mill with an odd controller that I couldnt find the right post processor for, and you modified one to work for me. Im not at that company any more, but they still use it every day. Many thanks!

    This my 3rd seat of Dolphin and I hope to become proffecient with v14, It has worked well for much of the work I do, and the tech support has been good.
    Regards,
    Ken
