Hello

I use Viewmate ( not the pro version ) since years for minor Gerber modification , I have downloaded the Pro version to make some DXF to Gerber conversion for evaluation before to purchase .

If Gerber files conversion works , I an stuck with the drill file as I create NCtool table , I declare my layer Vias as a PTH ( plated to the hole layer ) and the software provide me a message as no hole is located

If i try to convert by using the pad to hole tool as the soft declare '' no hole found '' , the answer is .... doesn't work

I have try to contact Pentalogix without an answer from them and Pentalogix help files and training video are really poor.

Perhaps someone can explain me how to convert DXF layer to drll ?

Regards
OS
