I've used BatchPCB on quite a few 2 layer boards now. It almost always
seems to take 4 weeks calendar time, although I may have had bad luck.
But don't even s
I recently received three ~1.5"x2.4" boards from Sparkfun. Took approx
three weeks.

Quite a bit faster, but note they have bigger rules for 2 layer (no

started guide took 3-4 weeks fr

Oops, eight. They're small, I found another one in the envelope :-)

Forgot to account for mask and silk (included), it's more like 12.5 sq
in.
I'm trying to get the simulation suite working for gEDA, but I'm having
a lot of trouble. gSchem and PCB work great, but gnspice and gwave seem
to have problems. gnSpice compiled just fine and seems to work ok, but
the RF Amp sample provided with gEDA errors out of gnspice. So I

Just got my boards back. Yes, it was a long time, but they're new

1. Make sure you have gerbv-2.0.1 or later.
2. Make sure your version of gerbv was compiled with cairo enabled.
You can find this out by lookoin
I seem to remember that in place of exporting gerbers export to postscript.
I think the utility ps2pdf is a standard linux thing. I hope this helps.

I want to use gerbv to print a layout to a pdf file. I can't find any
manual for how to do this. How do I use garbv to print out to a .pdf file?
Also, is making a home made two-sided board the same as DJ's one sided but
ironing both solder masks on their respective sides?
