Hi fourxfour2,

Thanks for the positive feedback about the software.

Looking on the Milltronics' web site and it appears that the Centurion CNC system runs
using standard G and M Codes. You should be able to save toolpaths using the default
GCode postprocessors available in all the software products.

Remember that the Trial versions of the software will save toolaths for the Evaluation
files so you can test the output on your machine.

Let us know if you need assistance or have any questions.

Tony
