Sure! This one's easy, go to http://www.lavenir.com they gotta shareware viewer called "Viewmate" that's good...I use it all the time. Just visit the site and download that puppy! Can print from it and every stuff. Just can't save anything...but hey, it's shareware. What I do though if I want to use the gerber silkscreen for some special process documentation (like jumper wires and whatnot) is bring the layer up in viewmate, hit the "Printscreen" key on your keyboard (that saves your screen to the clipboard), and then do a paste in whatever graphics program you use...I use PaintShop Pro. Then I can add anything I want...arrows, text, (whatever)...
