STM32F407G-DISC1- Discovery kit with STM32F407VG MCU

AFAIK, INK just can’t draw stuff that FZ will accept. I tried drawing an oval pad a number of different ways in INK, and nearly every time FZ distorted it in the gerber. The INK XML translation format is just not reliable in FZ, and even in the past FZ had trouble with Illustrator, so maybe FZ is more the problem because it’s too pedantic.

I wasted days before I was able to draw an oval in INK that worked in the Gerber export, but as soon as I duplicated it it went haywire again, like this :-

I suspect the logos in my BB are doing the same thing, but I can’t do much more than copy and paste them from the net. This probably explains why Van’s part doesn’t have logos :slightly_smiling_face:

You guys are experts in XML and can fix it, but how is a beginner going to do it. And because it’s murder seeing something that looks correct in INK but doesn’t work in FZ, it causes a lot of problems.

PS - I noticed Van’s BB drawing is a bit longer than the actual board :slightly_smiling_face:

This was an exercise in making a part with no coding, and simple pasting of drawing out of FZ, so it’s not going to have the nicety’s.
