Abstract

A three-dimensional processing data setting system comprises an information input device for inputting information on a shape of a three-dimensional work surface to be processed and information on a processing pattern to be specified, a display for displaying a work surface representing the shape information virtually in three dimensions thereon, and a coordinate conversion means for converting data describing the pattern information in two dimensions to three-dimensional space coordinate data so that a pattern representing the pattern information virtually matches with the work surface on the display, thereby generating and setting the three-dimensional processing data.
