Tips & Tricks
1

If someone is looking for a pcb in eagle, i found a way cause i didn´t see in the site that image (black&white).

  1. Open Eagle; File->open->board…

  2. Open your brd fil; Change background: Option->User Interface->Layout->White

  3. View -> Display/Hide Layers

  4. Click None -> Select Bottom, Pads, Vias, Dimension(B,P,V,D)

  5. Doubleclick on (B,P,V,D) and change the color to black.

  6. File->Export: Image (duno the image dpi necessary but 300 seem to be good): Monochrome

  7. It´s ready to be printed!

Other way using CAM processor:

Device = EPS

File = a name to save the file, with .eps extension

Select only this layers: Bottom, Pads, Vias, Dimension

Deactivate “Fill pads” check box

Click Process Job button  to save it as a vector file, also ready to print (black and white,)and no worries about DPI.

You can also edit this file on Illustrator or other vector apps *hint* to change the board size, join boards, etc.*/hint*

If you print at home (i do cause no one here will print on PnP) then just hit the print button!!

If you use the export to image then you should use the maximum dpi specified in the printer but eps is waaay better and safer.
