        Pro has an importer, but you will probably need to convert max files to 3ds in max ?
        To make a 'sliced' form find/install slicer.
        Make the form a 'terrain' like surface of a 'box' - so it's a 'solid', then slice it vertically as desired, practice on some simple forms first so you understand the principles...

          where is the problem? just draw each curve separately, build a plane from it and extrude it.

            AFAIK 3ds and fbx can still be imported in the free version (only dwg/dxf is limited to Pro).

            Maybe fbx would be a better choice in Max (I guess it can export in fbx) as it is a more advanced file format than the archaic 3ds.
