Is there a minimum width for silkscreen lines? I looked all over but didn’t find any hard numbers on what the minimum widths are. I saw in the eagle tutorial that you have the silkscreens set at 8 mil, but it didn’t say if this was the minimum. Are we allowed to set any width we want and take our chances if the silkscreen lines come out?
I’ve done tests at other board houses like the one below and it looks like silkscreens can go down to 2 mil without a problem, so i’m hoping the 8 mil isn’t a hard minimum that you have and its just a guideline.
Cool. I’m going to try some 7 mil line width text because 8 mil just won’t fit. If it comes out, great, if it doesn’t, I’ll consider it a lesson learned. I’ll update the post when the boards come back to let everyone know if 7 mil line width text is readable.
