gEDA-user: PCB: adding information to gerber output, anyone?

2011-02-09 Thread myken

Hello all,

I didn't see any reply on my question so I guess the very busy and 
overloaded knowledge base of this list didn't find the time to look at 
it, so please consider this a friendly reminder ;-)


Or am I asking a very silly question? (didn't find a answer by google)

The question was:
I was wondering if it is possible to add more information to the 
fabrication layer output of the gerber export (*.fab).
Added: I like to do this through PCB, is there a variable I need to set? 
Or a command executed? So that every time the gerber is generated by PCB 
this information is stored automatically in the gerber fabrication layer 
output file.
I like to add the copper thickness for that specific pcb (preferably for 
ever layer individually (inner/outer layer)).
So far I came up with adding this information to the outline layer (but 
that doesn't end up in the fab-file).


Thanks,
Robert.
Sorry for pinging again.

There's no standard way to add information to the gerbers.  However,
if you want to hack your PCB to append information from a
specifically-named layer to the fab output (and otherwise ignore that
layer), go ahead.

A text on copper layers? Outside the board area?
