Hi list,

> What is a "rubout zone" ?  Googling for it only finds stain removers...

I'm not 100% sure, maybe it is a manufacturer specific term (in my case 
LPKF). The rubout zone specifies an area on the board where the copper 
layer is completely milled away by the milling machine. We are using 
that feature for removing e.g. the small areas between SMD capacitor 
pads on our prototype boards, so they are more easily soldered by our 
engineers.
