It uses the Dam_1 layer to hold the "Label" for this plot that goes in the target text area. This label is kept on a private layer so that it will not show when the Board Outline is implicitly turn on again during the generation of the planes to generate the plane edge relief. Artwork Order Number 3 is the Component side Ground Plane Artwork Order Number 6 is the Solder side Ground Plane When creating the Gerber data you must had exit the "target text" on the Power_2 layer to change that text from "Gnd Plane #1 Comp Side" to "Gnd Plane #2 Solder Side". I.E. you have to hand edit and re-generate the Gerber data for either ArtWork file #3 or #6.

D14 is the flash for the 33 mil vias. By hand make the Aperture Table for the Solder Masks by increasing the dimensions of the flashes by 5 mil. By had move from the DIRAC [...D_Card] directory to the /Copy_to_Flop_Dir directory the following files: APERTURE_TABLE_REPORT.TXT ---> aperture.txt DRILL_TABLE_REPORT.TXT ---> drill.txt Manufacture_Instructions.TXT ---> instruct.txt COPY_TO_FLOPPY_DIRECTORY.SH located in /d_card_uber is uned to move Gerber and drill data files from /pcb/mfg to the /Copy_to_Flop_Dir
