The plated drill file is printed in 1/10th mils rather than just mils, so we were multiplying those values by ten before printing. This is why plated-drill overflowed but nothing else did. Now we just print a '0' after the values, rather than actually doing the multiplication. ;) -- Andrew Poelstra Email: asp11 at sfu.ca OR apoelstra at wpsoftware.net Web: http://www.wpsoftware.net/andrew "I don't understand.
