Mirroring artwork and drill files

archive
archive over 17 years ago

Hi,

    We're trying to produce an exact mirror image of a board (as well as the board itself). In order to provide artwork for our manufacturer, I made mirrored art layers for the manufacturer. However, what I don't have is the mirrored drill file for the artwork. Is there a way to mirror the drill file so that drilling with line up with the artwork (either in allegro or in another tool?). Alternatively, is there a simple single command to 'mirror' a board in the editor (simple application of the mirror command simply mirrors the individual symbols and whatnot in the design, but does not make a mirror image like mirrored artwork. Or maybe I'm doing something wrong.)

Thanks,
Will
