Straition lines printing in filled areas

Former Member
Former Member over 10 years ago

OS= Win 8.1

Eagle = 7.2

 

I have a direct to board print setup. That is, I print directly on the copper clad, straight out of Eagle. I have noticed that the fill lines are showing. I have found where others have had this issue, but I have not understood what to do to resolve the problem. This problem also occurs when I print the PCB to pdf format. I have read that it has to do with Eagle using lines to cover the filled area and that changing the line width and the fill style might be helpful. But, then, there are no instructions on how to do these operations and no feedback as to whether it worked, or not. Would someone please be so kind as to tell me the definitive cure and the steps to complete the task? I would be very grateful. Eagle files and libraries are attached. The problem is very clear in the pdf format. Thank you very much for your help.

    t1d I have downloaded the attached zip file and opened it on eagle checking for the schematics you included in PDF. The point is that the pdf is different than the schematics you attached, as in the image…

    If you press the button "Ratsnest" (first one in the last button section, the one with the connected nodes), you will see that the area enclosed by the dashed line will fill up (flood) the free space around…

    I have not discovered the definitive answer, so I am bumping up the queue, to keep the thread fresh.

    In the print dialog, when you select 'black', you should also select

    'solid'. If you fail to do that and your layer setup does not have a

    solid fillstyle then you can get the light and dark stripes.

    I suppose this only prints non solid fillstyle lines as solid? This is

    not about that.
