    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 !

    Hi again......

     

    Well, if the problem is the file name, simply change the file extensions or add a .gbr for your software.
    Of course you could also change the output files names for your Gerber data in way that you can use it easily...

    You could name the files, for example

     

    top.gbr  bot.gbr  silk.gbr  solderstoptop.gbr .........

     

    Regards,

    Richard
