Problem with gerber file dimensions

autodeskguest

Hi, when I create gerber data and drill files I see the following in my

gerber viewer:

I remember I have to do some settings in the window below. But I can't

remember what settings I have to do.

    Ben,

     

    Now I find that the Drills are aligned properly with the layers

    associated with the component layer. But there is an offset in the board

    edge between the layers associated with components side and those

    associated with solder side.

     

    Do we need to keep the 'mirror' option enabled for layers associated

    with the solder side ?

    Switch off the MIRROR flags in the CAM job sections if you prefer

    to have everything displayed the same.

    The Mirror option is set on the one hand for historic reasons and

    on the other hand for all those customers that want to print on a

    foil and make their boards manually.

    For a commercial board house it's no problem to mirror the gerber

    output if needed.
