Have you tried raoulduke's script
(http://www.mail-archive.com/kicad-users@yahoogroups.com/msg05013.html)?
If you work your way through the thread he tells you how to get an
image file (in the form of a PBM) into any layer. It'll take a lot of
messing about and you may not get you usable Gerbers, but I guess it's
worth a try.
Regards,
Robert.

hello,
Is it possible to scan an existing PCB from an old design and have Kicad
read this file (jpeg?) in order to create a gerber file output to make
new ones ?
I have some old designs from 30+yrs ago which I like to bring back to life.
thanks
