AISLER understands Gerber files generated from Designspark. This tutorial shows you in five easy steps how your Designspark export will always succeed when imported.
Hi…
I’m lost…
I use DesignSpark 10, and never had a problem with 2-sided boards.
But now, I am trying for the first time to layout a 4-layer board, and I can’t get it right…
I setup the Gerber and Excellon devices as described above (different precisions), but nothing is accepted as drill data…
I will inspect your files to see what went wrong, will give you feedback later.
Could you try to create a ODB++ export in the meantime? That should be much easier as you dont need to export the drill files manually. You can just upload the odb++ archive directly to our site, no extra work needed.
I am very sorry that you encounter these Problems. I will discuss the Issue with our CAM Engineer tomorrow.
We unfortunately do not have a Design Spark License at the moment, So I cant try and replicate the Issue directly. Is the latest project you uploaded a 4 Layer Boards? The Gerber only contained the two outer layer.
Could you send me your Gerber/ODB++ files to thore@aisler.net ? I will forward them tomorrow.
There is a free licence for DS, which is the one I use.
Indeed, my last upload is recognized as having only 2 layers, but the content of th ZIP file includes 2 internal Layers.
Maybe a problem of naming conventions ?
