# The cad/gerbv port

## gerbv-2.7.0p4 – viewer for Gerber (RS-274X) files

## Description

    Gerber Viewer (gerbv) is a viewer for Gerber files. Gerber files are
    generated from PCB CAD system and sent to PCB manufacturers as basis for
    the manufacturing process. The standard supported by gerbv is RS-274X.
    The basic difference between RS-274D (the old standard) and RS-274X is
    basically the addition of apertures in RS-274X. It might be possible to
    make an RS-274X file out of an RS-274D file and an aperture list.

    gerbv also supports drill files. The format supported are known under
    names as NC-drill or Excellon. The format is a bit undefined and
    different EDA-vendors implement it different. But basically you need to
    have the tools definition in the file, then the parser is quite
    tolerant. The different holes are shown as dots in the (scaled) correct
    size.
