Thank you for using EasyGerb (AutoCAD to Gerber Conversion). EasyGerb is unique because it runs directly inside of AutoCAD and outputs gerber files faster than you can export a DXF file.
Here's an online movie showing how to quickly load EasyGerb into AutoCAD, configure EasyGerb, and convert to Gerber. See Link:

(1) Loading EasyGerb Inside AutoCAD 2013-2017 or AutoCAD Mechanical 2013-2017
----------------------------------------------------
Since EasyGerb is a plug-in for AutoCAD, so it must be loaded into the AutoCAD environment before it can be used. EasyGerb is installed into the folder (typically "C:\Numerical Innovations\EasyGerb\"). There is one EasyGerb ARX file for each version of AutoCAD. The EasyGerb file name indicates the release of AutoCAD that it has been designed for.
Please be sure to use the EasyGerb ARX file that corresponds to your version of AutoCAD.
EasyGerb2013.arx -> AutoCAD 2013 or AutoCAD Mechanical 2013
EasyGerb2014.arx -> AutoCAD 2014 or AutoCAD Mechanical 2014
EasyGerb2015.arx -> AutoCAD 2015 or AutoCAD Mechanical 2015
EasyGerb2016.arx -> AutoCAD 2016 or AutoCAD Mechanical 2016
EasyGerb2013_64.arx -> AutoCAD 2013 (64-bit) or AutoCAD Mechanical 2013 (64-bit)
EasyGerb2014_64.arx -> AutoCAD 2014 (64-bit) or AutoCAD Mechanical 2014 (64-bit)
EasyGerb2015_64.arx -> AutoCAD 2015 (64-bit) or AutoCAD Mechanical 2015 (64-bit)
EasyGerb2016_64.arx -> AutoCAD 2016 (64-bit) or AutoCAD Mechanical 2016 (64-bit)
EasyGerb2017_64.arx -> AutoCAD 2017 (64-bit) or AutoCAD Mechanical 2017 (64-bit)
To load EasyGerb into AutoCAD please follow the steps listed below:
A. Select "Load Application..." from "Tools" menu or enter the "APPLOAD" command.
-This will activate the dialog "Load/Unload Applications"
B. Select location of the EasyGerb ARX file: EasyGerb20XX.arx (XX is the AutoCAD version you are using)
C. Click "Load" to load EasyGerb into AutoCAD.
D. Click "Close" to exit.
E. To start EasyGerb Type (at the command prompt): "EasyGerb"
-This will start "EasyGerb"
Note: Loading EasyGerb can be a one time process if you place EasyGerb.arx into your AutoCAD "Startup Suite". The next time you run AutoCAD, EasyGerb will automatically load itself.
SPECIAL TIPS:
* EasyGerb can be loaded just by mouse-dragging of the EasyGerb.ARX file to a running AutoCAD window.
or
* If you want to load EasyGerb.ARX into every AutoCAD session, add its filename to your ACAD.RX file (use a text editor). Or - in a simpler way - use the StartUp Suite in the APPLOAD dialog. You can even just drag your EasyGerb.ARX file from Windows Explorer to the Briefcase icon in the APPLOAD dialog.
