sudo apt install gerbv imagemagick 

git clone https://github.com/brandtks/GerberRender.git 

GerberRender can be ran by simply running gerbrend [options...]. Running the command without any options uses the defaults variables to render both the front and back images and searches the local directory for the gerber files to use. Recommend either moving or creating a link to the gerbrend file to somewhere the terminal can find it.

• -F Only render the front gerber files
• -B Only render the back gerber files
• -r Set the final image resolution
• -p Defines the solder mask/PCB color. Can only be green, red, blue, yellow, black, or white
• -w Defines the silk screen color. Can only be black or white
• -c Defines the copper color. Can only be silver and gold
• -l Directory location containing the gerber files
