I'm new to PCB and doing my first Project in Orcad 16.6 lite.
I have a circuit with 3 Leds in row and a connector.
I created the pads in paddesigner. Soldermask and pastemask i made the same size.
I created my board and tried to generate gerber files. (rs274x)
Since I have only one layer, I created the top.art and I added the silkscreen top file. Board outline I added manually, because it isn't listed in the Color Dialog box under manufacturing. This also worked.
My problem now: How do I get the solder mask top gerber file ? Isn't it defined by my pads that i made? When I add the solder mask manually nothing happens. Undefind line width is 0.2 mm
What am I missing? Thanks for any help.
