There is a working tool I've used with linuxcnc called iiirc jpeg2gcode
that you could probably take and image of the polygons, generate the gcode,
then combine the output with the isolation milling that geda provides.

the gcode export from pcb would be interesting for a first rush<br>
engraving, but at least in pcb-rnd it is deemed experimental and close<br>
to deprecation without a maintainer or users.<br>
<br>
If you can get aligned layers exported from pcb in a suitable format,<br>
then you can use a real cam nc processor like rhinocam, vcarvepro,<br>
pycam, ez-cam, fusion360.<br>
