Re: [kicad-users] Postscript Output
sadkra a écrit : Hello Everyone, I just finished my first sch-pcb project in Kicad. I tried to output the pcb in Postscript format. When I looked carefully at the Postscript file, I found that some of the pads are missing /or some pads are only half drawn in bottom-copper layer while bottom-copper mask shows the complete pad-mask. I may add that gerber output of the same pcb is fine without any problems. It will be of great help if someone throws any light on this. Postscript output has a bug: after drawing oblong pads, some next drawings can be incorrectly drawn (bad size) This old bug is now solved (Postscript output will be Ok in next release, coming soon) Can you confirm you have oblong pads on your board ?

If you need Postscript for PCB making, use a Gerber Viewer and make a Postscript output from it. You can't trust anything but the Gerber file. //Dan, M0DFI
