GTO to CGM Conversion: FAQ
What are GTO files?
The GTO format is part of the Gerber family of extensions and contains a detailed vector image of the top silkscreen of a printed circuit board (PCB). The formats included in the Gerber group cover different aspects of a PCB, containing descriptions of copper layers, solder masks, electric connections etc. GTO images are created using Protel software and can serve as input files for producing PCBs via photoplotting.
What are CGM files?
CGM (Computer Graphics Metafile) is a format that contains vector graphics information (clip art, drawings) associated with graphics design or CAD programs. As opposed to other types of metafiles, such as EMF or WMF, CGM files are not only supported by Windows, but can be used on different platforms too. They are encoded using binary, character-based of clear-text encoding.
