hi all,

i am having some problems with exporting a design in eagle to gerber using
the elecrow design rules. would anybody mind helping me with it?

here the board:

the elecrow design rules are here:
http://www.elecrow.com/wiki/index.php?title=How_to_export_gerber_files_from_eagle_file

the problem i’ve encountered is that eagle complains about a polygon
creating a large plotter area and then it get’s stuck at “printing aperture
d10”.

could anybody help me with this, please?

many thanks,
const

Mine printed D10, but took nearly a minute doing it…
I’m using eagle-6.5.0 and it is still using cpu time trying to print after
3minutes.On 14 January 2016 at 12:22, Constantin Popp constantin.popp@gmail.com wrote:

It’s just large, my laptop a core-i5 took 4:30 to print it (1.6MiB zipped).
The print for the backside is 5.6Mbyte of gerber.On 14 January 2016 at 12:22, Constantin Popp constantin.popp@gmail.com wrote:
