I have always used OrCAD (now known as Cadence) to design my boards and I’m pretty used to it, so I’d like to use it with Sparkfun, but I’ve been browsing some of the DRD files users post here and mine look a lot different. I select Extended Gerber and 2.3 format in Layout Plus:

And my .drd file looks like:

Is this format correct? and if not, any suggestion to get the right format? I hope I have not to learn how to use Eagle or any other CAD package…
