Hi, I'm currently using Ansys electronics student desktop 2023 R2. I'm wondering after the antenna design and simulation there how should I proceed to with fabrication ? How do i export it as a Gerber or how to convert it ? the export menu under one of the drop down menus only had export image option.
 

Maybe because of Student Version ?? Some features including exporting might be disabled.
 

oh damn
what do I do ?
any suggestions ? tips ?
If you archive your project then send to somebody who has exporting license, he can create Gerber outputs for you.
If the export menu is greyed, it's obvious that the license is not available.

okay I'll try that but can the older version of ansys ( like 15.0 ) open .aedt archive files or will there be an error ?
after completing the archive I should then export it to AutoCAD dxf file or is there any other file format which I should do ? Assuming I have to add my matching circuit how do I add that ?

The other option is to redraw the structure, measure points of
interest and push the polygons. Klayout for IC or KiCAD for
PCBs?
 

I don't think that older versions can open this new format. It's not possible to my knowledge.
