Edit: appears to work fine. The use of gerbv was important to make sure settings were correct. Original post follows:
Are the Gerber files from DipTrace OK for ordering from BatchPCB?
I downloaded “gerbv – a Gerber (RS-274X) viewer”, as named in http://batchpcb.com/index.php/Faq#How%2 … 20are%20ok and it views the *.gbr files fine. http://batchpcb.com/index.php/Faq#Can%2 … 20software doesn’t mention DipTrace.
I tried Eagle. I was not up to the task. For example, I could not figure out how to tell Eagle which power supply would power each chip. And there were other things.
My design in DipTrace is not done, but I wanted to see if I would be able to order some boards with the out put.
These were the output files when I let DipTrace produce everything:
Board Outline.gbr
Board.gbr
Bottom Assy.gbr
Bottom Mask.gbr
Bottom Paste.gbr
Bottom Silk.gbr
Bottom.gbr
Top Assy.gbr
Top Mask.gbr
Top Paste.gbr
Top Silk.gbr
Top.gbr
Any advice?
