You can also extract data (such as a complex PCB outline) directly from the Gerber files:

Reverse engineering KiCad project from Gerber files

The goal of this reverse-engineering tutorial is to re-create a complete KiCad project from partial information assuming the only information available is a schematic in some readable, (but not EDA form, such as a .pdf or a .png picture), and a set of gerber files. The Gerber files will create a PCB with much PCB information missing, however, using this method is easier than re-designing a PCB from scratch, and can also be extended to any other program that creates Gerber files. What is “resc…

Gerber export is only per layer, so if you want to only want a part of a layer, then export it to a user layer, or some extra copper layer, and then take out only things you want in pcbnew.
