dimension question

e14 Contributor over 16 years ago

My circuit board house says they are not receiving any dimensions when I send the Gerber files. Where can I find what

file the dimensions should be in. I Have crosses in the 4 corners of the board in layer 20 which is marked the dimension layer.

Yes I am a newbie convert from old tape and dots on mylar.

Thank you Lee

Hi Lee,

the board's contour is usually drawn in layer 20, Dimension. This is what your board house wants to have. I suppose the would like to have completely drawn outline, not only crosses. What are the crosses for? Fiducials? These could be drawn in layer 49, Reference, for example.

Hope this helps.

Regards,
Richard
