Actually, that should be done to the gerber file. The *.pcb file should adopt one convention, holes are the finished size. Then the gerber file should be altered to the vendor preferences. That way the *.pdc file remains vendor independent, and the vendor could use it when needed. My students used pcb for a course project last spring, and discovered this problem the hard way.
