Hello Community!
I've got a bunch of GERBER-files from our costumer to create the panel for the pcb. Usually I'm using IDF but in this case it's not possible.
A little research showed the well known and used QCAD can handle Gerber so I gave it a try befor buying. The result
is not as expected.
All the radii of the outline and millings are lost. What went wrong and how can I fix this behavior?
I'm using a fresh downloaded and installed 30 days trail version of QCAD/CAM 3.24.2.0 running under Windows7.
Thanks for your help

Re: Import Gerber files
I can confirm that in single quadrant mode (G74), arcs are not supported at this point. This might be added in a future release.
Re: Import Gerber files
I see now,
It is a CAM file format ... That Pro's can not load. Why?
It is not listed in features list.
Tought I clicked on a link to the complete list of features:
