most pcb's are specified as a 'Gerber-file'. the language is very much G-code related BUT. . . it specifies the thickness of the pen (or the aperture) and the cooordinates of the track that is drawn with it.
But for milling we need the "negative" i.e. the coordinates of the isolation between the tracks. So I guess if you draw your pcb as a "negative" you might get away with just massaging the gerber file a little. j.
