Gerber Data:

A type of data that consists of graphics commands, usually describing how to draw a picture of a circuit. Intended for directing a photoplotter, it is the most common format for data transfer from PCB CAD systems to the manufacturing process. Gerber data is officially designated as RS-274-D (without embedded aperture codes) and RS-274-X (with embedded aperture codes).
