Thank-you!!! I am doing a board with KiCad as a learning exercise and was going nuts trying to figure out why the drill file wasn't lining up with the Gerbers. So, a few questions: 1) Is there a reason that the "mirror y axis" option is enabled by default? 2) Is it possible for KiCad to produce Gerber files with drill data so the NC files aren't needed? (The EDA package I normally use does this.) 3) Can this "mirror y axis" issue be mentioned in the tutorials so no other poor soul has to pull his/her hair out like I did!!! -M [the nice thing about pounding your head against a wall is that it feels good when you stop. -anonymous]
