    The problem comes after CAMP; when viewing in Gerbv only the outline is

    present

     

    This is because supply layers are negative, and the text drawn is removed

    from the copper.

    You could just convert the GND plane to a normal layer, add a polygon over

    the whole board and name it "gnd". That would keep your image.

    That sounds pretty much what I have already...

     

    GND plane is:

    Layer Top 1

    Polygon Pour: Solid

    Signal Name: GND

     

    I have just noticed the image can be seen in gerbv viewer But!!! only at a

    set altitude...and importantly it's not present in the board pic exported

    from gerbv...I think it's something to do with how CAMP is processing the

    imported image; as no other layers seem effected 

     

    .just tried importing the image to its own separate layer(Layer 2) and

    giving it dominance over the top layer in gerbv ..but the result is still

    the same
