.EPS pcb layout from Eagle files?
« on: January 02, 2014, 11:46:22 am »
I have two Eagle files and need an .EMS file from them. I do not have Eagle. I just want the file to print the transparency to etch a couple of boards. Can someone tell me if the files attached will convert to produce an .EMS file and what i need to do this please? Or if it's dead straightforward for an Eagle user, maybe they could convert to.EMS and post it up or mail it me.... :)  :)  :)

Thanks!
Best regards,

If you are going to etch yourself. Just print the brd file as a mirrored black pdf.

Thanks, I'll download it again, but if it had errors would the zip have even opened?

Eagle is complaining about erc errors. not set junctions. Is this supposed to be a 2 sided board? ground plane on top?

That was really good of you, many thanks. If I print at 100% size straight from the .pdf file, should the image size be correct? Hole spacing for the header connectors and LM317 seem correct at 100%

Thanks again!
