You're right Andy, the lad who's doing them is using some sort of router or CNC milling machine, and I've created the layout with that in mind. But he's asking for Gerber and NC Drill files. On the up side, it's a very cheap service - about £10 for a 10x10cm board, so I don't want to go someplace else. And yes, I am wedded to my Adobe
Wilksay, going by that guide I made sure all areas are closed and solid fill, continuous boundary (with 0-width line) that does not self-intersect. Also made sure there are no 'islands' inside the filled shapes. Still no luck. Autocad has no problem opening the files.
IconicPCB, I'm posting the dxf files below (trace and drill). It would be great if you can make a Gerber file out of them, and even better if you tell us how you did it! If we get glitches, I can alter the layout to suit.
