The standard you are looking for is named EIA-247 and
is found at

to the hefty price of USD 78.00. It's somewhat hard to find the standard by
using
Google or something, but trying out "gerber file format" and
"RS-274-D" gave
enough leads to start a manual hunt at the standards institutes.
Things to look out for:
EIA-274-D The TIA/EIA standard
ISO 6983 The ISO version (same thing in an ISO wrapper)
The document that used to be at Barco (rs274xrevd_e.pdf) is gone but a copy
was easily found using ftp search. Also both PCB and GERBV can output RS274 so
you might look at the source from those programs
