I'd be glad to help but the file downlod has me baffled!! What format does the laser cutter need the files in? Usually the software that runs the cutter will read a dxf file in directly, sometimes it has to be scaled or rotated onto the available stock but it usually is not a major issue. If you want you can pmail me and I'll give you an email address that you can forward the files to.
