Roger,
As the question was asked, the easiest way to convert to a .bmp seems to be
to use Camtastic to view the gerber, and then select Export to .bmp.
You can then use the photo-like editor of your choice to tweak the file to
your liking, convert to .jpg, etc.
Without using Camtastic, you can only export directly from Protel to a
metafile, and then use a photo editor to convert the file to a .bmp. I
have had NO luck with the Enhanced Metafile setting, I would suggest not
using it.
Anyone else's posts not echoing besides mine?
