I have a little problem, perhaps someone could help to steer me in the right
direction.  I have a bunch of old designs (Gerber and Excellon Drill files) that
I need to create a drill drawing for.  I need to show the quantity, size,
plating requirements and a unique symbol or letter for each occurrence (a
typical drill drawing without the dimension).  The only files I have to create
this from is the Excellon drill file.  I have looked at CAM350 and I can reverse
engineer a drill drawing with that but it takes about 5-10 minutes and I would
need to train others how to do it.  Besides the fact that buying CAM350 to
create drill drawings is like buying a tractor to make a flower garden.  Is
there software that can do this and only this?

Thanks for any help!
