Thanks! and When can i start to generate the Gerber. I have pressed the rat net and rip it all. So it finished? Further steps are needed in order to use Gerber? Gerber is a program to read the layout, it is not a file format, am i right?

  No, Gerber is a file format.

For PCB

then select the device driver    Gerber/RS-274X

then hit the ok button


the greber files can be viewed with the geda program gerbv
