Four layers - Options already showing up on batchpcb

Hi there,

I noticed when I was placing an order yesterday that batchpcb now shows selectable fields for two additional copper layers.

Will a new eagle tutorial be provided to help those of us who need guidance?

Thanks in advance.

Hmmm…that is an interesting post.

If you already using eagle…you know just about everything that you need. You must have a purchased version to do more than two layers anyway. But if you do…the only thing to know …the other layers are just for traces…so it can’t be that complicated.

I’m using a commercial licensed versio of 4.16r1 (for work), i’ll check to see if I have a 3rd and 4th layer option somewhere.

I'm not sure on that.. I've been using a job file provided by sparkfun to convert my eagle projects into the kind of files batchpcb will accept, so I'm going to guess that I'll need their script to take care of the middle layers aswell.

So does this mean I can submit a 4-layer design to batchpcb?

I have purchased Eagle Standard from CadSoft, which allows 4 layers.

I would like to try submitting a board with inner power and ground planes.

Please let me know if it’s acceptable to submit with 4 layers.

Thanks.
