Drill hole size vs finished hole size chart

PCB6453
PCB6453 over 2 years ago

On my drill chart, they all call out for the "finished size" for all holes (through hole, blind vias, and microvias).  The fabrication house that I talked to requested to have the drill size shown instead of the finished hole size for microvias only.  Is there a way to show the drill size instead of the finished hole size on the drill chart?  Or can I show both?

Thank you.

    manunfacture --> nc --> drill customization on the menu shows u the drill customization dialog.

    it automatically generates the hold size and hole count.

    u can generate the report file in csv as well.

    Masamasa,

    I was hoping to generate a chart that calls for "Drill_Size" for the microvias without me having to manually change it all the time.  For now, I change the "FINISHED_SIZE" to "DRILL_SIZE" for the microvias.
