STANDARD.DOC
This suggests a set of standards for a simple two sided board with plated
through holes. The symbols in ELEC.LIB follow this standard and will save some
time in getting started.
Level 1
Used for the component side of the board. We look at the board from the
component side and see through to the solder side. We show this side in
green/cyan depending on the Palette switch setting.
Level 2
Used for the solder side of the board. We show this side in red/magenta
depending on the Palette switch setting.
Level 3
Used to show drill spots. We show the drill spots in green/cyan.
Level 4
Used to show component outlines. We show the components in brown/white.
Level 5
Used for the solder mask. We would show the solder mask in green/cyan. We
have not set up a solder mask on the demo symbols.
While you are free to set up your own standards, if you want us to plot a
demonstration file for you it will reduce the chance for confusion if you
follow the above.
We suggest that you name your plot files with names ending in 1,2,3,etc.. so
that they come out looking like MYPLOT1.PLT etc.. This way we will be less
likely to mirror the wrong plot if we plot for you. We will normally plot side
1 mirrored, and side 2 direct. This way the two sides will register emulsion
to emulsion for the least error.
We find that everyone has different choices for colors. There seems to be
great variations in the way each of us perceive color. When we can, we will
allow multi-color selection for the EGA version of this program. If you
hate the IBM color set choices this is one more reason to buy the licensed
version. Note that you can switch between the two IBM color choices (1,1,3,5).
