Image to Gerber Conversion

Early this month I mentioned an image to Gerber conversion java program that can be an alternative for those who do not want to learn or use a PCB layout program. I was informed by the programmer a few days ago that there is a new version available at Sourceforge, so I went over and downloaded the package to give it a try.


There were a few improvements made, specifically the ones I suggested, namely the ability to save the selected colors and better contrast for the WhatsThisColor dialog box when the mouse moves over a darker color background. On top of that, the ability to select which of the four color artworks to replace is a nice feature too.

If you have not give it a test drive yet, go to the following link to download the program:

It's free but if you think it's useful to you, a small donation to the programmer is a nice gesture of appreciation for sure!
