I am not familiar with the ".top" extension, do you know exactly what information does that file contains?... that might give us users a clue and maybe point to one of the export files from Ultiboard...

I assume you are talking about exporting gerber files and NC drill files. Go to File >> Export and you can select one of the options...

a) Select one of the Gerber RS274 options, then click Properties, here you can select which layer you want to export. Based on your comments, you are looking for probably Copper Top, Copper Bottom... but maybe you may want to export also the Board Outline, Silkscreen Top and Bottom, etc. It will depend on your board manufacturer which files they need. On you have configured which layers to export, then click OK and you are back to the Export dialog, now click the Export button and it will start exporting.

b) For the .drl and .rep files, in the same Export dialog, select NC  Drill, you can then select Properties to configure it, or Export to create the files.
