Hi Brian,

I'm just popping in to update this thread as this issue is still haunting me. I can't do as you described above because the option to align the NC Drill file to any kind of origin at all wasn't a thing until a later version of Protel than what I own.

Hi GK,

Which version of Protel are you using?

**** BTW, JLPCB's new gerber viewer seems to decode your attached PCB files with the their drill offset, whatever they may be, correctly.  Perhaps it is a little bit smarter.

??? Brian, did you care to read my post beyond the first sentence?

I have the menu - just as stated already the position options relative to an origin are missing.

I asked which version of Protel you are using?
If you have an official Protel 99, your 'key' may be good to freely upgrade to Protel99se which has the film offset settings...
Protel98's key wont work in 99se.

Quoting from my post which you didn't read:



--- Quote ---"I have Protel 99SE service pack#4 – unfortunately this version of Protel does not have any provision for automatically aligning the drill guide to the other layers. According to some historical information on Altiums web site, that option wasn’t added until Service Pack #6 and above."

If anyone in Australia had a few extra PET PCB's fabricated and wouldn't mind mailing me one or two sets, obviously I will cover the cost of the boards and postage and packing?

Cheers
Richard

Hi Richard,
I just had some boards made for the PET project. How many are you after? hows $20 a set plus postage? (Let me know where you are and I can calculate it)
Cheers
Guy
