FAQ
DRL to XBM Conversion
What are DRL files?
The DRL image format is included in the Gerber group, which consists of over 20 standardized extensions used in the production of printed circuit boards (PCB). Similar formats in the group — such as GTS, GBS or GTO — contain descriptions of solder masks, silkscreens and various other layer data. DRL files cover drilling data and they are vectors used as input files by photoplotters which fabricate PCBs.
What are XBM files?
The XBM (X BitMap) format represents a monochrome image file usually used for storing cursor and icon bitmaps in the X graphical user interface. XBMs store data as C language data array, so they can be included directly into an application. They are, however, fairly large in size. In the late 1980s the XBM format was superseded by the XPM format for the X Windows System.
