[Elecraft] OT - Importing GERBER files into PCB drafting software

I hope this topic will be short-lived...

I have just received several GERBER files for a PC board I'll be working with.

I only have the freeware versions of EAGLE and ExpressPCB to use.

Does anyone know if the Gerber files I received can be imported into either 
Eagle or ExpressPCB? If so, how?

And finally, is anyone aware of a program (hopefully free) which would at 
least permit me to view/print the (imaged) contents of the Gerber files I 
have? At present, I have no clue what was actually sent to me, so I'm not 
certain if they're only drill hole info or actual plot files.

PLEASE REPLY DIRECT TO ME and OFF REFLECTOR.  I don't want to create a lot 
of bandwidth on the reflector.

73,
