Export PostScript options.

Note: All postscript files exported from ACE are rasterized (no vector). There are two reasons for this: (1) Vector PostScript files (converted from Gerber, DXF, etc) can become cumbersome and too large to be useful. (2) Rasterized postscript files have been known to plot must faster and efficiently.

Export Postscript Scale (located on Main ACE Page):

Scale Factor:

Determine scale to use for Postscript output. (In most cases for MEMs/EDA masks a factor of 10X is used.)

Export Postscript Options:

postscript_export

Postscript Type:

Select Postscript output type either Standard or Encapsulated. If you are unsure, contact your local graphic expert - in most cases we recommend "Encapsulated".

Line Width (Points):

Default line width to assign for 0-width objects such as lines, arcs, etc.

Text Fill:

Specify how to output text (if any):

Line: Text will be exploded and outputted as gerber traces using the Line Width.

Solid Fill: Text will be exploded, and output as polygons.
