A simple trick: - export as SVG/PDF - import in inkscape - apply mirror/registration marks/negative/crop whatever you want - print This is the method I had been using some years ago when I did most of my PCB using toner transfer. Couple of other tricks: - you can do homemade vias using car windshield heater repair kit (the stuff to repair broken heater wires in the windows of your car, Loctite sells it for ~20$) - (not tested myself) I've heard that sprinkling a mix of acetone and isopropanol instead of transferring the toner to the PCB with heat yields much higher quality PCBs (see [1] - in polish, google translate should be more or less readable). Must test myself one day ;-) Cheers, Tom [1] http://domwlesie.eu/moje-projekty/amatorskie-plytki-transfer-chemiczny/ _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kicad-developers Post to : kicad-developers@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kicad-developers More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
