Scott,
PADS PowerPCB does have a problem writing the RS-274-X format. I believe
this is to be
corrected in the latest (2.2) release. To create a good RS-274-X file, I use
PC-Gerber II. RS-274-X
adds the aperture data to the beginning of the gerber file.

Subject: [TN] Gerber format question
Hello TechNet,
Can someone explain the difference between the RS-274-D and RS-274-X gerber
formats?
As a secondary problem, I had a vendor ask me to send him a gerber file in
RS-274-X format and when I looked at it with my gerber viewer, it looked
different than the same file that was in RS-274-D format? Is this a
problem with my design package (PADS PowerPCB) or my gerber viewer (Lavenir
ViewMate)?
Any and all info is appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Scott Holthausen
