Anything is possible, even if we don't

I think you can ONLY place anti-copper objects on the plane. It
i have created negative text this way, I put a sample on egroups some

Hi Thomas-
The answer is simple - anything you draw or place on a plane in Protel is a
void (copper will be removed). Planes are negative images - they are
entirely covered with copper until you place something on them to remove
the copper. A fill on a plane layer would be a copper void; on
