	Good morning,

	We recently started using the Mentor-Graphics software package for our
IC- and planar sensor design. We have a problem concerning this sensor-design. 
The extra mask for these sensors will be generated using a Gerber-interface 
photoplotter and the ChipGraph (full-custom design) package of Mentor does not
have a Gerber interface.
	So now we are desperately looking for a conversion program from GDS-II 
to Gerber or any other way to generate a Gerber-file out of Chipgraph. 
	Anybody out there who can help us?

	Thanks a lot,

P.S.: I just registered on this newsgroup, so I hope that this question hasn't 
been asked before a hundred of times.
