        In all honesty, they have my sympathy. If I have to put up with EAGLE, no idea what the fab has to deal with

        @starsandrobots from a PCB fab house? Odd. Never had comments on atyp silkscreen or copper. Sure they are not confused by something else?

        @starsandrobots nothing that big. Why so big? Artwork on silk & copper? If it's a fab house, it's often worth understanding the concern.

        @roteno thanks, I've informed them. The boards I am working on are highly graphical — bringing Forrest Mims hand-drawn circuits out as PCBs

        @roteno the comment is funny because "looking hand drawn" is indeed, the entire goal of my work.

        @roteno you can see why the gerbers are so huge, examples: https://twitter.com/starsandrobots/status/701881932812947456 … https://twitter.com/starsandrobots/status/706226837811122176 …https://twitter.com/starsandrobots/status/690620851343917056 …
