    Hi,

     

    the CAM job produces several Gerber files which have different file extensions.

    The following files will be generated:

     

    %N.cmp  Component side

    %N.sol  Solder side

    %N.plc  Silk screen component side

    %N.stc  Solder stop mask component side

    %N.sts  Solder stop mask solder side

     

    %N.gpi   Info file, not needed here

     

    %N is the placeholder for the board file name without its extension.

     

     

    Could you please check?

    regards,

    Richard

    Yes i have all that :

     

     

    %N.cmp  Component side

    %N.sol  Solder side

    %N.plc  Silk screen component side

    %N.stc  Solder stop mask component side

    %N.sts  Solder stop mask solder side

     

     

    but my appliance for create  the card "http://www2.ac-lyon.fr/etab/lycees/lyc-42/carnot/UserFiles/Image/charlie2U(2).jpg"  can just read Gerber file "*%N.Gbr" or DFX file i have try with DFX file generate by eagles but the result is not perfect on this appliance ...

    After that i have used a file generate by "Altium" %N.gbr and all is good (but i have not the right to use altium (^_^).

     

     

    I have see a documentation where a man use eagles for create a file *.GBR but i think  the file GERB274x.cam is modify.

     

    Sorry !
