Negative text on silkscreen

Former Member
Former Member over 13 years ago

Hello everybody.

 

Is there  a way (perhaps a ULP) for creating negative text on

silkscreen ? I know it can be done by importing a .bmp file but

i wonder if there is a more elegant way.

 

Thanks

    There is a ULP called negasilk.ulp by Christian Bohrer

     

    It exists as an attachment to a posting in the eagle.support.eng forum

    The easiest way to locate it is to use the eagle central portal

    http://www.eaglecentral.ca/forums/ and search for negasilk

    It's in the topic "silkscreen inverse text"

    The negasilk ULP has also been uploaded to the online repository at

    www.cadsoftusa.com-> Downloads-> User Language Programs. It's been

    submitted should show up on the list in a day or two.

    Did you get permission from the author to upload it to the CadSoft site?

     

    Correct me if I'm wrong. The terms of use of the CadSoft site are, if you

    upload something there the IP rights are transferred/gifted to CadSoft.

    There are no such terms for the Newsgroup forum and some authors elect to

    post content there but purposly avoid uploading to the website to prevent

    gifting the IP rights to CadSoft.

     

    It may pay to check out your action.

    Thanks Christian,

     

    I'm sorry if I stepped on your toes. I made sure to give you credit on

    the upload, thanks of writing the ULP.

     

    I hope the clarification will ease the concerns of other users and

    motivate them to post their ULPs on the site so that other users may

    benefit from them.

     

    Thanks again.

    Hi Jorge,

    Maybe I missed something but it seems there are two sites to post ULPs

    The old:

    http://cheetah.cadsoftusa.com/cgi-bin/download.pl?page=/home/cadsoft/html_public/download.htm.en&dir=eagle/userfiles/ulp

    And the new: http://www.cadsoftusa.com/cadsoft-downloads/

    If this is the case, there are 3 programs on the old site that have not been transferred to the new

    site:

    importexport.zip

    pcb-service.ulp

    gencad_131.ulp

     

    Best Regards,

    Christian Bohrer

    Hi Christian,

     

    The two sites mirror each other, I was able to find importexport.zip and

    pcb-service.ulp on the new site as expected, however I couldn't find

    gencad_131.ulp. I let our webmaster know and see what happens.
