How to generate Gerber files from an Autocad layout?

[Straight Tracker]

Hi All,

I have created a PCB layout in Autocad and would like to generate Gerber files so that I can have it made by a commercial PCB manufacturer.

I have tried Keycad and Fritzing without success.

Is there a way of doing that without learning to use those software tools?

Sincerely,

Ralf

There is a plugin for AutoCad EasyGerb: The Easiest Gerber Export for AutoCAD Users ™

Interesting, I never thought it would be possible, since Autocad simply is missing a lot of information which is routinely present in dedicated PCB design software.

Good to know.
