[PCB_FORUM] Re: No text or lines showing up in Gerbers...


 Hi Astin,
 
Go to "Text setup" and set the "Photo Width" to some value other than zero for all the Text blks.
Now try generate Gerber and check.Hope this helps.
 
Thanks,
Ismail.A.

Austin,
 
If you add a photoplot width to your all your text you won't
need to change the Gerber setup. The width can vary for the text size too.

Hi Gerry,
 
Yep, found that on my own.  Then found it has to be set for EVERY one, even if all them are checked.  I should have known that, given reading the file into GerbTool gave me a zero error.  I should have done two minutes of looking before asking the list, but the good news, is every reply was right ;-)
 
Regards,
 
Austin

Hi,
 
When I bring go to the manufacturing/artwork tab, and select, say, fabrication drawing and display to make the display look like what the Gerber should look like, it looks fine.  I print it out, and everything is great.  But, when the Gerbers get generated, ALL text and lines are gone!  Etch is fine...
 
What is going on here?
 
Thanks,
 
Austin
