\$\begingroup\$ It's possible Altium outputs these files but just gives them a different name. Can you find out from the fab what these files are supposed to represent? For example, is .TOL for "TOLerance" or "TOp Layer"? (Top Layer in Altium would be the .GTL file) \$\endgroup\$– The PhotonOct 28, 2017 at 19:34

\$\begingroup\$ TOL should be something related to CNC TOOLS list like drill drawing but with the information of what kind of tool to use. \$\endgroup\$– Elius94Oct 28, 2017 at 20:45

\$\begingroup\$ @Elius94 In Altium there is not a designated layer for the tooling information. Instead you pick a mechanical layer and dedicate it for that purpose. Then just the mechanical layer to the Gerber export \$\endgroup\$– DerStrom8Oct 28, 2017 at 20:47

\$\begingroup\$ If you're looking for the aperture file Altium provides it as a plain text report file. Not sure of the name off the top of my head. \$\endgroup\$– The PhotonOct 28, 2017 at 21:44
