Convert GBR to GERBER

Can you convert GBR to GERBER?
QUICK ANSWER
Is it possible to convert GBR to GERBER?
No - not a direct conversion.

The db lists 'gerber' (software_count 1) as a conversion target - this is almost certainly a spintax artifact from confusion between the GIMP .gbr brush format and the Gerber PCB .gbr extension. A GIMP brush cannot be converted to a Gerber PCB file.
