#88356 - Don't Do It!
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Michael Karas said:
Under NO circumstances is it a good idea to use a Gerber editor to make changes to a PC design before you go to PCB fab. You should ALWAYS go back to the originating tool set to make any changes to the layout design.

This is equivalent to patching an EPROM by hand, then sending the patched EPROM to production without updating the source files!
