RE: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Re: Circuit Board Layout Program

Ian
That looks like the output of a Gerber file.
That is what Autogerb does is take AutoCAD file and
change it to the Gerber file so you can get a PCB made.
If you take this file and look at it with the Camtastic 2000
viewer you will see what you have done.

General Question:
Has any one got the full version of Camtastic DE? It has an output
called Rout/Mill does this output a G-code file to make the circuit
board?

HI,

I downloaded Autogerb and have tried it on a filoe I already had in Autocad
but I can't understand what it has actually produced - not g-code as think I
know it. Can someone give me a brief explanation of what the output is
please? This is a short bit of it.....
