This has been a little screwy for a long time. UNTIL they fix it, you'll
have to rename the 2 digit files such as:
.g1 -- .g01
That allows the gerber read back to get them all.

Subject: [PEDA] Gerber file naming convention
When Protel assigns gerber file name extensions (xx.gxx), what is the
rule for internal layers? I just did a 6 layer board, and the extensions
are. g10, .g1, .g2 .g5.
When you try to import either a single or batch file, Protel only
allows a 3
character extension to be seen, and not a 2 character extension. Here are
the layer names and their filename extensions:
.G10 = -5V PLANE COPPER
.G5 = GROUND PLANE COPPER
.G1 = +3.3/+/-12V PLANE
.G2 = +5V PLANE
