I'm have a spatial relations brain freeze going on here.
I just completed my first PCB in Diptrace. In the past I have used PCB Express and when I printed the bottom traces, I would print in mirror for toner transfer mthod. Well I just tried the same thing in diptrace and after I got my board all etched and drilled, I realized the bottom is not lining up with the top silk.
It looks to me like Diptrace works a little differently than Express? It looks like you are working on the traces as you see them looking down through the board. Likewise when you do a print preview?
So did I not want to print my bottom traces in mirror for toner transfer?
Good thing this was a small prototype project. I'm thinking I am ok, I just won't be able to have a top silk.
