How to generate artwork film with drill symbols from a specific via type?

Gipper
Gipper over 5 years ago

I want to output an artwork film showing the via in pad locations. All the via in pad locations on my project use the same via that has a unique drill diameter. 

How do I go about generating an artwork film that shows only this via symbol while ignoring all other via symbols?

My toolset is OrCAD PCB Editor 17.4-S009.

    Add a custom mask layer 'VIP' in that padstack, then you can generate artwork for that mask layer
