Marco,

using windows I was able to get more accurate results although some components and pads are not presenting correctly still.

In the windows version 20090216-RC5 the results are better but not perfect.It is important to note that the result is the same for gerbers under OSX.

Regards,

I have checked the pads in the board file again to make sure the pad attributes do not have both PCB layers selected. However, the silkscreen layers seem to merge for both sides so I am getting component footprints from the back on the front and front on back as if they are the same layer.
