Default ExpressPCB to Gerber file converter?

Hal;

May have to reroute a few traces that cross a significant length of the
board to fix some design errors. I haven't looked at the raw Gerber files to
see how easy doing the editing by hand word be to do.


It's not the length that matters but the number of segments.

I didn't mean to suggest that it would be simple. It would take
a bit of trial and error to get going. You would probably have
to find some specs for the gerber file format.

I'd probably do the routing on paper and then transfer it to
the gerber file. The important point is that you can use the
viewer to show what you have so you know if you got it right.
