Here's the notes from the tutorial movie:

Convert GERBER files to STEP
============================

1. Configure ACE.

2. Import Gerber files.

3. Verify Import and Export options.

4. In this example we will export only metal layers and use boolean logic to subtract drill holes from metal areas.

5. In this example we will only export a partial of the entire panel (save time and smaller STEP files).

6. STACKUP: I will use arbitrary z-base & thickness for each layer. You may assign your own correct Stack Up.

7. View results in a 3D Viewer.
