If not, GerbView can convert Gerber files to DXF, PDF, DWG, TIFF, SVG, and other file formats. Online Gerber Viewer might also work for saving the GBR file to the PNG image format. FlatCAM can convert the Gerber file to G-Code. Convert DXF to GBR with reaConverter — Batch Conversion Software Markup elements like text, gerber, QR-codes, images, arrows, lines, symbols, ellipses and polygons can converter added to the workspace, and will dxf included during conversion and printing.
I need to convert DXF to gerber files RS-274X and nc drill file.

1. Here's the link to our standard guidelines for performing DXF to Gerber conversions that you may find helpful:

2. Your Demo.dxf file looks fine. However, the lower-left origin is 1750mm (in X), which is not practical for gerber conversions, so I moved the lower-left closer to the origin. There were also some small entities that had no relevance in the DXF (so I deleted those). The goal is to keep the DXF simple to have a successful Gerber conversion.
Here's a tutorial showing me perform these steps:
(1) Edit the DXF as explained above (using Free Draftsight or AutoCAD).
(2) Perform conversion of DXF to Gerber and generate Drill files using ACE 3000.

Note: To generate an NC Drill file you must have a layer which contains the circles that are the NC Drill. Then during ACE Gerber Export Options, check the column 'Drill', for the layer which has the drill holes. I couldn't see a drill layer in your drawing so I did not check it.

Is it compulsory that we should have a layer called 'drill' in which all the holes are to be situated for generating the NC drill data?.Why I am asking this question is because we normally create a layer called 'pth' and assign all the PTH circles to that layer.

Wanted to generate NC data for this layer but I found the information being generated was incomplete.
