Filling polygons with other polygons

[gabi68]

I make electrical pannel and recently I have a customer who want a bunch of led arangend in a pattern. For that I need to create a filefor my CNC machine. Let say I have letter A and I need to fill that letter with circles (for leds). That circles must fill entire area and must be complete (for using on a CNC machine). What I need it is away to allow me to select a diameter or distance (maybe for using anything else like rectangles) and possibility to select distance between polygons curves and filling polygons. So any ideea or sugestion maybe for other software which can do that.

A 1000 words....could you post a sketch of what you want to do, even scanned scratchings on a table napkin will help us see the concept.

TIA

For an unknown reason server dosen't want to upload my little .dxf design. The general idea is:


- a outline letter must be filled with a circle (pattern).


You can see a CorelDraw plugin here http://macromonster.com/index.php?mod=descr&id_desc=97but because I don't have Corel try t do same thing in SW.
