Short: Konvert gerber to eps Author: Dirk Baechle MorphOS Port by Carsten Siegner Uploader: Carsten Siegner Type: gfx/conv Version: 1.0 Architecture: ppc-morphos >= 3.9 Distribution: Aminet Kurz: gerber2eps ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- English---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Gerber2eps can convert Gerber RS-274D files to EPS files. At the moment only a small subset of the RS-274D standard is implemented: X : X-Coordinate Y : Y-Coordinate D01 : Exposure on D02 : Exposure off D03 : Flash aperture Dx : Select aperture x Mx : End of program All measures in the input file are interpreted as mil units! So far, gerber2eps has only been tested with the demo version of the PCB layout program PADS that I use. Reports about experiences with other programs are welcome! While it scans the input file, gerber2eps detects the usage of apertures that have not been defined yet. Then you are asked to enter the aperture type and some additional parameters for it, such that gerber2eps knows which output to produce. So be sure to have these informations ready, either by printing out the aperture table (DOS) or by opening the file in a second window (Windows, Unix/Linux). You can select the following apertures for the output: SQUARE : Filled square CIRCLE : Filled circle DONUT : Circle with inner hole SQUARE_DONUT : Square with inner hole The following parameters have to be entered for the apertures: Color/Polarity : 0 = Black, 1 = White Outer diameter : The outer diameter in mil Inner diameter : The diameter of the inner hole in mil
