Hi dear,

I need to convert a quartic surface made in pov-Ray into CAD compatible
format (.OBJ?) Can you help me suggest me how to do it or a software (OS)
thata can manage this problem?

Thank you a lot,
Andrea

  I think that math software (such as Mathematica) can create meshes
from polynomials. More than that, I don't know.

Thanks, but Mathematica isn't OS.
I think that Mathlab could be useful too, but I really need an OS Software.

Any other idea?

  Just out of curiosity: Are you using "open source" as a synonym for
"can be used for free" here?

Octave (www.octave.org) is a very competent OS software which is very
similar to Matlab. There are many functions for manipulating and
calculating polynomials, try
">> help -i poly" inside octave.
