Hi,
You should read a good basic VLSI design book before starting to launch tools. These are different layers used in layout. There is plenty of material available on the web, do google search. Some are:

http://www.vlsitechnology.org/

I found the book "Basic CMOS VLSI Design" by Eshragian simple and nice.

Good Luck
