<i>EAGLE Help</i>
<h1><center>Output File</center></h1>
<hr>
The <i>Output File</i> contains the data produced by the CAM Processor.
<p>
The following file names are commonly used:
<pre>
-------------------------------------------------------
File Layers Meaning
-------------------------------------------------------
*.cmp Top, Via, Pad Component side
*.ly2 Route2, Via, Pad Inner signal layer
*.ly3 Route3, Via, Pad Inner signal layer
*.ly4 $User1 Inner supply layer
... ...
*.sol Bot, Via, Pad Solder side
*.plc tPl, Dim, tName, Silkscreen comp. side
*.pls bPl, Dim, bName, Silkscreen solder side
*.stc tStop Solder stop mask comp. side
*.sts bStop Solder stop mask sold. side
*.drd Drills, Holes Drill data for NC drill st.
-------------------------------------------------------
</pre>
<b>Alternative Output File Names</b>
<p>
If you enter ".ext" into the Output field the output file
"boardname.ext" will be generated.
<p>
In order to avoid the Gerber info file in a Job being overwritten
by the following Section, you can enter ".*#" into the Output field
(where "*" stands for any number of valid filename characters).
The output file name will then be "boardname.*x", and the info file
name will be "boardname.*i".
If, for instance, a board named "myboard.brd" is loaded and you have
entered ".cp#" into the Output field,
an output file "myboard.cpx" and a Gerber info file
"myboard.cpi" will be generated.
<p>
<b>Drill data with blind&buried vias</b>
<p>
If the board contains blind or buried vias, the CAM
Processor generates a separate drill file for each via length that is
actually used in the board. The file names are built by adding the number
of the start and end layer to the base file name, as in
<pre>
boardname.drl.0104
</pre>
which would be the drill file for the layer stack 1-4. If you want to have
the layer numbers at a different position, you can use the placeholder <tt>%L</tt>,
as in
<pre>
.%L.drl
</pre>
which would result in
<pre>
boardname.0104.drl
</pre>
The drill info file name is always generated without layer numbers, and
any '.' before the <tt>%L</tt> will be dropped.
Any previously existing files that would match the given drill file name
pattern, but would not result from the current job, will be deleted before
generating any new files. There will be one drill info file per job, which
contains (amoung other information) a list of all generated drill data files.
