Some problems anyway: - No drill holes (at least in default 28dip300 module) - "20" text touches the nearest track (the one between pads 13 and 14) in gerbview, too. But in pcbnew it's mote than 10 mils away! Is it just a problem with text (if so it could be better to include "guards" around it too!) or momething different (and I have to expect "moving tracks")? >From some testing I just did, it seems that text is shifted 13 mils to the left (pads are at the correct coords in gerbview, text is not)). > I'm happy to stand corrected... Me too :-) BYtE, Diego.
