Thanks to everyone who gave me input on this. I've been debugging my custom foot prints and realized that this was an issue with a 0 size mask and clearance field in one of my custom footprint files . Now gerbv is not putting out any errors and I noticed that when PCB is run in console and export is done it will output errors to the console which was very useful to narrowing the problem down to a specific footprint that was causing the problem.
Again, thanks! Idan On Tue, Aug 19, 2008 at 4:04 AM, Stuart Brorson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hey all, I'm having a problem with a the frontmask gerber file.
