Via masking

C Shiva
C Shiva over 15 years ago

Hello Everyone,

    I'm facing an issue that if we put silktext on via hole, will it be properly printed or drilled out? As i saw in some boards silk text on via was drilled out and in some board it was properly printed.

    How can the silk text printed on board? I think it's after drilling and solder masking only. But the above issue is quite different.

    Kindly share your inputs.

Thanks,

Shiva.
