Subject:[pcb-rnd] inconsistent empty outline/boundary export
replies: 3568 from ge...@igor2.repo.hu
when nothing has been drawn in the outline layer (which I will call explicit), pcb-rnd shows lines on the border of the board area (which I will call implicit).
when exporting the board, the outline/boundary layer is not always exported, and not always the same way:
pcb-rnd -x ps: the implicit outline is drawn on the pages, but there is no separate page. an additional outline page is added for explicit outline
pcb-rnd -x cam gerber:eagle: exports implicit and explicit boundary
pcb-rnd -x gerber --name-style eagle unnamed.lht: only exports explicit boundary
pcb-rnd -x cam gerber:JLC_PCB: only exports explicit boundary
 
I did not test all combinations, but it is a bit inconsistent, particularly when using CAM jobs, which is meant to avoid this behaviour.
