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.

Thank you all for the suggestions.

The negasilk.ulp did the job fine.

Hello Michael,

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.

Hmmm, a polygon in separate signal_layer with a zero-width text and

print simultaneously with silkscreen ?

Unfortunately for inner layers there is still no restrict possible.

BMP converted to lines/points is of course possible as well.

Have you tried putting it on its own layer and inverting it in the cam

processor?
