I guess you could define something like
{ Name C ;
Value { Integral { [ quantity ]; In surf; Jacobian surfjac;
Integration integ; } }
}
in your PostProcessing, and use
Print[ C[surf], OnGlobal ];
in your PostOperation.

Sure, you can use whatever CAD+mesh generator combination you like.
You'll just have to transform the final mesh into the .msh format
described in chapter 8 of GetDP's reference manual. This should be
pretty easy, as the info contained in the .msh files is really basic (a
list of nodes and a list of elements).
If you write a converter for some well-known mesh format, post it to
this list. It will probably be useful to other users, too.
Cheers,
Christophe
