Newbie: Converting HPGL or Gerber files

Discussion in 'AutoCAD' started by lucretia.kapichok, Dec 2, 2005.

  1. I am building a CNC type PCB milling machine. Does anyone know of any
    software that will take as input either an HPGL file or a Gerber file and
    convert it so that it plots the outlines of the tracks (ie. suitable for PCB
    milling ? Have any of you folks used TurboCNC in this way for home brew
    millers.


    Best regards,

    Or find and old copy of Generic CADD which reads in HPGL files nicely,
    then save as dwg or dxf. That was how we converted alot of CAD files in
    them days..
