It would be very nice if Easygerb would leave the settings intact after gerber out. By that, I mean each and every time, text as an example, I have to set font, etc., change height. would be much better if you left last used values alone. : Numerical Innovations

You can save all your settings (including fonts, Layer Merge, and more) using the Settings configuration file (*.egs). You may Save and Open any EasyGerb configuration file (*.egs). Once you are done setting up EasyGerb for a conversion (i.e. setup layer merge, and other settings) and before pressing OK to start your conversion, go to the EasyGerb menu: File / Save Configuration File...
Note: The next time you perform a conversion just Open the Configuration file and all settings are restored.

How to Save EasyGerb Settings file:

Start EasyGerb.
Assign all EasyGerb options you typically use (for example assign layer options, text settings, merged layers, and other settings).
Go to the EasyGerb dialog menu: File / Save Configuration File... (remember this menu is in the EasyGerb dialog - not an AutoCAD menu).
Choose a location to save the EGS file (make sure you have "write" permission to that folder).

How to Open and Use EasyGerb settings file:

Start EasyGerb.
Go to the EasyGerb dialog menu: File / Open Configuration File... (remember this menu is in the EasyGerb dialog - not an AutoCAD menu).
Choose your EGS file you wish to use.
EasyGerb settings will be updated.

watched your video again, and the menu is in plain site. I am sorry I did not see it.

now stuck because easygerb will not run at all.

I know this is an older video, but is there a way to have a custom configuration file autoload?
