Hi all, I would like to know if it's possible to generate that kind of document with Eagle : PCB definition. It's a document with the different layers in a PDF file. I joined a example of this document.

I'm using eagle 8.3.2.

    Hi Rem,

     

    Maybe there are other (better) ways to do it, but personally if I had to do this, I'd create a custom job file (*.cam) using the CAM Processor, and select a suitable output format (e.g. EPS) and build up your custom job to generate the output as desired, for each sheet, automatically naming them (say) 1.eps, 2.eps and so on.

    Then, use a command line or script to combine them all together into a single PDF in the desired order (there are linux command lines using ghostscript that can do that, but probably many other ways too).
