Fabrication FAQ
Can I get my design from order history?
No, JLCPCB only accept the Gerber to make fabrication, it can not be the source design file to import to EasyEDA
Can I import Gerber to EasyEDA?
No, EasyEDA doesn't support to import Gerber as PCB
How to transfer a team owner to someone else?
Team owners who are not able to switch roles directly will need to make a transfer.Start by entering your personal workspace from the top. You need to make sure that the person you are transferring to is a member of your team.If you don't know how to add a member, please see the image below.! Then select the object that the member is supposedly transferring.This member of the transfer will then become the owner of the team.Note that this operation cannot be reversed.
How to draw a color silkscreen and place an order?
The first step:Open Settings.You need to enable the ‘Using JLC color silkscreen technology’ option in the PCB setup first. Step 2: Import colorful images.EASYEDA supports importing colored images and previewing them with the option to place the original image. Choose a vector image such as PNG or SVG.If you find that the imported image does not have the option to place the original image, please replace the image with another format. Clicking on Confirm will automatically place the image on the top silkscreen layer, or you can switch to the document layer or the bottom silkscreen layer as required. Function 2: Setting the component silkscreen color. Once the component is selected, you can set the silkscreen color in the properties panel on the right.Properties such as internal line text, prefix, etc. of components are produced using this color at the time of manufacture. After clicking on the blank space of the canvas, the Properties panel on the right side, you can see the color silkscreen settings. Function 4: Preview color screen printing In the top menu - View - 2D/3D Preview, you can preview the color silkscreen and image. In the Properties panel on the right of the preview screen, modify the silkscreen process to color silkscreen, and you can see the effect of color printing.
How to place an order?
After finishing the setting and editing of the color silkscreen, export the color silkscreen production file.Tick the option of exporting color silkscreen, and then export Gerber. Please note: If you need JLC's welding service for your color silkscreen boards, please make sure that you set the process edge in the ‘Panelize’ function or add the process edge manually, otherwise the color silkscreen will not be printed if you choose the welding service. After entering the pcb ordering interface, you need to set the corresponding options in the JLC ordering system before you can select the color silkscreen order.
- When entering the ordering system, choose FR-4 for the board, which only supports double-sided board and 1.6mm board thickness for the time being.
- Choose white for soldermask color and immersion gold for pad spraying.
- And then the character process and then select EasyEDA color screen printing can be.
What should I do if I have no permission to save a file?
There are several ways to try to solve the permissions problem:
- It is possible that the login status is out: exit the account login, restart the editor to log in once again.
- It may be because the file from oshwlab open project, not the user's personal, needs to save as,save in the local computer and then imported into eda to save.
- The current computer network does not work: change the network to restart the editor.
What should I do when the system indicates that the schematic diagram and the pcb are not on the same board?
Under normal circumstances, a board can only have a schematic diagram and multiple schematic pages and a pcb composition. Redundant schematics and PCBS cannot exist on a board at the same time. When the system prompts an error, you need to select the pcb or schematic diagram, click the right mouse button, and put them back under the original board.
How to add multiple boards or schematics and PCB?
The boards or schematics and pcb's on the left side of the project can be added by clicking the right mouse button after selection. Note: Only one schematic and one PCB can be matched under one board. Designs requiring multiple schematics have the option to add a schematic page.
