Gerber import into eagle

Former Member

I am trying to import gerbers that were created in CADENCE into EAGLE.

 

I managed to find a tool EAGLE power script tools which allows you to convert the top and bottom layers of the board into a script file which is then openable in EAGLE.

 

But these only convert one layer at a time. How i then merge these two layers into one file?

    you could use EAGLE's cut and paste commands to combine them. Not sure

    how you will align them though if they are skewed.

    Why not simply run both script in the same board?
