I do a lot of work for a Japanese company. When they require a slot they ask
me to place pads in series, each a half overlap over the other. These slots
are never very long maybe requiring 5-10 pads. I believe this method works
for the fabricator, and it saves me the time of creating a detail.
Hope that helps,
