Inverted Gerber files

jgauthier over 2 years ago

I want to send Oshpark a 4 layer board design. The two middle layers are planes, one for GND and one for 3V3.

Circuitstudio's Gerber output for .GP1 and . GP2 are "inverted" or "negative" gerber files.

Meaning, they look like this:

However, OSHPark only works with "Positive" gerber files, which look like this:

How can I get Circuit Studio to export these "inverted" or "positive"?

Perhaps change the interior layers in the stack up from plane type to signal type. In my opinion there is not much of a reason anymore to use plane type layers anyway.

Please keep us informed.

So, that's actually what I did. I changed the the layout manager and instead of internal planes I made two signal planes. I then just added a poly pour on GND and a poly pour on 3v3. Now it's "compliant" and when you open in a Gerber viewer makes sense.
