You need to create your gerger files using 274X format so that P*otel
knows what the aperture sizes are Wink

P*otel can read in metric or imperial, use something like the below.

metric
4:3
absolute
no zero suppression.

These should be OK.

If you use P*otel DXP you can import directly from OrCAD. No need for gerber files.
