I just finished a panel and exported my Gerbers, Drills, and Routs. However when I re-import them back into FAB 3000 the routs are offset (i.e not placed correctly) - why?

The NC routs look different after importing them because they are using "Cutter-compensation", https://www.cnc.com/g40-g41-g42-cutter-compensation-gcodes/

FAB 3000 will not display the cutter compensation unless you place FAB 3000 in NC Editor mode (menu: Windows > NC Editor Mode).

Probably the easiest thing to do is export your NC Routs without compensation. During Rout Export, check the option "Remove Rout Compensation(s)". Here's more detailed information, https://support.numericalinnovations.com/support/discussions/topics/14000012789
