Loading EasyGerb into AutoCAD

 Previous pageReturn to chapter overviewNext page

Since EasyGerb is a plug-in for AutoCAD, it must be loaded into the AutoCAD environment before it can be used. Loading is a one time process. The next time you run AutoCAD, EasyGerb will automatically load itself.  Here's an online movie showing how to quickly load EasyGerb into AutoCAD, configure EasyGerb, and convert to Gerber. See Link:

EasyGerb is installed into the folder (typically "C:\Numerical Innovations\EasyGerb\"). There is one EasyGerb ARX file for each version of AutoCAD. The EasyGerb file name indicates the release of AutoCAD that it has been designed for.

 

Please be sure to use the EasyGerb ARX file that corresponds to your version of AutoCAD.
