This software is a gerber viewer for Gerber RS-274X files, Excellon drill files, and CSV pick-and-place files.

About Gerber Files

Gerber files are typically output by a PCB CAD tool, and are sent to a PCB manufacturer who uses the files for manufacturing Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs).

There are two standards defining Gerber files: An old one called RS-274D, and a newer one called RS-274X. Gerber files generated in the old format (RS-274D) lack aperture information, which must be supplied separately. The new standard (RS-274X) embeds aperture information into the file. Note: the software displays RS-274X files not RS-274D files. When you create Gerber files using your PCB tool make sure you export RS-274X files if you want to view the files within the software.
