Top Copper (F.Cu)+ Soldermask (F.Mask) + Silkscreen (F.SilkS)
Bottom Copper (B.Cu) + Soldermask (B.Mask) + Silkscreen (B.SilkS)
Board outline (Edge.Cuts)

Don’t forget to Generate the Drill Files. Click on ‘Generate Drill File’ button. You can use the defaults here as well. Check the “Merge PTH and NPTH holes into one file” box. For now just click ‘Drill File’ or press ‘enter’ to generate the drill file. Use the same output folder as for the gerbers, which should be the default.

Check the Gerber files in GerbView

Next, click ‘Close’to exit the Drill and Plot windows. All of the files should have appeared in your gerbers folder. KiCAD comes with a gerber viewer called GerbView, you can open the “GerbView” and check what your board looks like before sending it to manufacturer.
