e14 Contributor

hi, i have just started using eagle 7.6.0 in ubuntu

 

i am trying to create my gerber files, but when i create the drill files the layer is the wrong size, while the board is only a couple of inches, the drill layer is about 20 inches?

but the other layers are the correct size in gerbv?

    It's a gerbv bug.

     

    Since Eagle V5 the CAM processor has used higher resolution (5dp)

    encoding for both Gerbers and Excellon drill files. It seems gerbv

    correctly identifies this in the Gerbers but assumes 5dp for the drill

    file. You can set the correct resolution byt selecting the DRD layer and

    opening the Layer->Edit file format dialog. Turn off auto and set 5 digit.
