It may not be an issue with your PCB fabricator. You need to ask.
I make my footprints with 10mils of cl

You may be able to correct them with a script - if I have an issue turn up

Hi,
I was just doing a final review on a board that I built in gschem/PCB
using (mostly) footprints out of the default library and saw what
appears to be a serious shortcoming. The following footprints have
silkscreen that overlaps the pads - something I've been told by
experienced board d

Those loops you listed did the trick. I altered the data section to
better suit what I'm up to and added all the silks. The result is at the
bottom of my pag

When you're creating the footprint, after you convert it but before
you save it, name it "X123" or something. Move and siz

That's what I do. Make one arc on-grid, then fiddle with the angles
manually. That also lets you make arcs that don't sta

I could not agree more ;-)
I have a script that creates a footprint for a Belton VT8 t
Some quick comments:
Your holes are 35 mil, the spec says 59 mil
Inner ring is 0.28in diam, spec says 0.30in
Outer ring is 0.824-0.848in diam, spec says 0.87in.
Note: radial layouts like this really want to be done by a perl script
or other program, which can position the pins more precisely.

Could I get someone to take a look at a footprint I made? It's at
http://www.gedasymbols.org/user/david_griffith/footprints/rotary-switch.fp
and is intended to accept most typical 12-position rotary switches. In
particular, it's for a Lorlin CK1046. The data sheet may be found here:

* Corrected the silkscreen body on AMP 102979 and 103149 series
connectors. The outside edge of the body is 140mils from the center
of the first pin row. I mistakenly set the inside edge of the body
to 140mils from the center of the first pin row.
* Added footprint for solder jumpers JMP_SLD
