How do I convert Postscript (or PDF) to Gerber using ACE 3000?


To Import Postscript you will need to download & Install GhostScript.  You may download/install from the following link:
http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/ghostscript/GPL%20Ghostscript/8.63/gs863w32.exe?use_mirror=cdnetworks-us-1

---------------------------------------------

Essientially these are the steps (after you have installed Ghostscript):
A. Start ACE 3000.
B. Select Import Format "Postscript/PDF", and select export format "Gerber". Press button "Next".
C. Select PDF or Postscript to import.
D. Review import options, and press next.
E. Review export options, and press next.
Note: ACE 3000 will now import your Postscript file.
Note: To view converted Gerbers, click button "Cad Viewer..."
F. Review layer options, and press next.
G. Choose export folder.

Note: That's it, you have converted the Postscript/PDF file to Gerber.
