Artwork control form

Carvey
Carvey over 16 years ago

Setting up above for artwork generation and recieve the following warning when I open up the above.

Database resolution exceeds the artwork output resolution.Some round off of coordinates may occur unless the number of decimal places for artwork is increased. Change format decimal places.

Design parameters;  units mills, accuracy 2

Artwork control form;  output inches, format decimal places 3

Change to what?

    Still not sure what I’m doing yet.

    In the shape parameters I had Gerber 4x00 selected and we are going to use RS274X.

    Once I changed that I had to update plane data.

    Now when I go back to the artwork control form and select RS274X I still get the same message as before.

    I have reviewed the help files on Raster format but still don’t know what numbers to put into place.

    Right now the numbers are integer 5, decimal places 4.

    It is still not right.

    I tried putting in a 7 as you suggested but it says the range is only (0-5).
