RoyalScam Posted January 4, 2006 Report Posted January 4, 2006 First time post, long time reader. I was recently looking for info on how to print multple copies of PC boards on one sheet of paper using Eagle. No luck there, I had to export the board as .bmp and use the GiMP to recreate the page I wanted. But during my search I found these tutorials and they did help me understand Eagle a little better, perhaps they'll help you as well.Enjoy!Royal Scam Quote
Jidis Posted January 4, 2006 Report Posted January 4, 2006 RS--I think you may have forgotten something. ;)Maybe one of these?http://www.interq.or.jp/japan/se-inoue/e_eagle.htm   <-------- One of my favorites!and I just saw this-http://vulcan.ece.ucsb.edu/ece189/tutorials.htmlCoincidentally, I think I was reading a thread in the Yahoo PCB group recently about the multi-print problem. Same outcome as you got doing the exports into another app. I usually just use the "page" alignment prefs to move the print from top to center to bottom (or left/right if it's small), and just let the previous prints get a little extra "heat" while the new ones go through. I also haven't had any trouble with cutting 8.5x11 sheets into three horizontal segments and feeding them with each set to print at the top.-GeorgePS- As much as I like the Eagle app, I think they may have managed to produce some of the worst manuals in the history of mankind.

RoyalScam Posted January 4, 2006 Author Report Posted January 4, 2006 You're absolutley right! Somehow I forgot to paste the link,http://vulcan.ece.ucsb.edu/ece189/tutorials.htmlSame as your second link, although I like the first one better.I'll try cutting the Toner sheets as you said, sounds like just the ticket for a small project. Thanks andSorry, sometimes I type faster that I think.RoyalScam Quote
Jidis Posted January 4, 2006 Report Posted January 4, 2006 I'll try cutting the Toner sheets as you saidJust don't hold me responsible. ;DI'm just on regular glossy Staples and JetPrint photo paper here. I don't want to see anybody ruin a sheet of that blue stuff or anything. I'm guessing anything that feeds with a full one will do the sections, you may just hear the roller running for a second after it comes out.-Good Luck! Quote
