Pepakura Viewer 4 for Silhouette CAMEO exports DXF files with registration marks that are compatible with Silhouette Studio. Pepakura Designer allows you to easily create papercraft models from 3D data you create from your favorite 3D software. It's slow going since I'm learning how sketchup works, but I know that once the 3D model is finished it must be unfolded, and the only program I see to do this is Pepakura. Two problems: A) I have a mac and Pepakura is inconveniently Windows-only and B) It costs $40.
Is there a Mac equivalent to this program that anybody is aware of? I could install an old copy of XP via Boot Camp, but it seems like such a waste of time and hard drive space to use only one program. There is a Pepakura alternative compatible with Mac OSX: Dunreeb Cutout If I do go this route I know there is a free sample version - would this be enough to make an effective model (very little texturing, mostly cylinders, straight edges, and a couple of spheres - but will be long, so probably spread across multiple pages). There's even a free demo version to try out.
