Convert Gerber into PDF file

Is there any way, or steps to do it, in SKILL to convert all the Gerber files into a single pdf file with multiple pages?

    Hi,

    I'm also very interested in this.

    My thoughts for an approach is to plot postscripts and then translate those to pdf.

    My current problem is automating the creation og postscripts from a board inside PCB Editor - anyone with some ideas here?

    Best regards,

    Ole

    Hi

    This is available from OrCAD Marketplace

    http://orcadmarketplace.com/ProductDetails/tabid/93/ProductID/12/Default.aspx

    After download and installation you can get the latest version using the menu item NsWare->Update NsWare which will also include other free utilities.

    Best regards

    Ole
