A quick search over at CNC.com brought up these two possible
solutions from the forums. A longer read there shows others.

At Science Specialists they have ACME Profiler - Coyote Edition
http://www2.fwi.com/~kimble/scispec/scispec.htm

And 

meshCam over at www.robgrz.com

There's a DOS program bmp2cnc that maybe useful also.

All the best
