If you use EasyEda for design, you need to switch it to inch , if is it in cm measure of the holes will be incorrect
What kind of gerber is a 'GTI" file that is first used? He calls it a drill file. And a top layer file....I have none of these in my gerber file sets generated by Altium Designer
It sounds like you're trying to export the correct Gerber files from Altium Designer. While we don't directly support workflows using third-party software like FlatCAM, we do have a guide and template available specifically for exporting Gerber files from Altium to ensure compatibility with our Bantam Tools machines. You can also use the built-in tools in our software to mill Gerbers, though it's important to note there may still be compatibility issues if the files aren't from supported software like Eagle or Altium. For more details on how to properly export Gerber files from Altium, you can refer to this guide: support.bantamtools.com/hc/en-us/articles/115001656813-Altium.
