When updating from the Gerber based Outjob make sure to uncheck Zip content
!
Confirm the form. A new publishing destination should show up.
Import the output configuration
The Altium Outjob configuration file can be found on Github:
Click on the Download raw file button.
This will download the OutJob file into your Download Folder, copy the file into the folder where your Altium project is located.
Using âAdd Existing to ProjectâŠâ on the âProjects Panelâ, import the Outjob configuration to your project and assign the layout you would like to submit.
Make sure your PCB file and Outjob are in a project, the export will fail otherwise.
Push your project
On the right hand side of the Outjob form, click âGenerate and Publishâ and select âPush to AISLERâŠâ.
After just a few seconds a prompt should open up. Enter either a new project name (âAwesome Projectâ) or copy an existing repository / project path (âsandbox/awesome_projectâ).
Setting custom Bridges
To set the position of custom bridges youâll have to draw a marker on a layer that is named aisler-bridges , you can either rename an existing mechanical layer or create a new one.
Important: The aisler-bridges layer needs to be included in the OutJob configuration, it is not selected by default.
Migrating from the legacy Gerber-based Altium outjob to ODB++
Please Note: This Guide is only applicable if you already installed the Altium Push Outjob. In case you are installing it for the first time follow the steps mentioned above.
Step 1: Update Publishing Destination Settings.
- Head to Preferences â Data managment â Publishing Destinations â AISLER Push.
- Click on Edit Connection
- Under Options unselect the Checkbox Zip content.
- Save the Settings.
Step 2: Removal of the old Outjob from the Project.
Navigate in your file structure to
Select Exclude fom project.
Navigate to the file location and save the Outjob at a different location. In most cases the ODB++ is the better choice but during the transition period there might be things that not work, thus keep the Gerber.
Step 3: Adding the new Outjob.

- Using âAdd Existing to ProjectâŠâ on the âProjects Panelâ, import the Outjob configuration to your project and assign the layout you would like to submit.
