Jim,
I'm guessing the 4.4 drill format is causing the problem, since
that's not a valid Excellon format. In the left sidebar, right-click on
the drill file and select "edit file format". Turn off autodetect, no
zero suppression, metric, and 4 digits. When you click Ok it should
reload and parse it to your specs. If it works, I would recommend going
to the file menu and "save active layer as" to have gerbv re-export the
file back to a valid format, so you don't have to keep doing the file
format thing each time you load it.
Hope this helps--
Julian

Hi,
I started using Gerbv a couple of weeks ago; the Windows version, and
have run into a problem that someone with programming experience would
have to fix.
The programs that I use to generate the Gerber and NC Drill files is
CADint and Altium.
Altium outputs the Gerber files in English units in 2.4 format and the
NC Drill files in metric units in 4.4 format.
When I try to overlay the Gerber layers with the Drill file the
program fails to recognize that the contents are in two different
measurement systems.
Can someone fix the viewer to read the drill file contents and adjust
to view to allow these files to be overlayed?
