Summary
The New Draftsman Document dialog allows for the creation of a new Draftsman document (*.PCBDwf) for a chosen project and source PCB document. You have the option to create the new document based on a defined Draftsman Document Template (*.DwfDot), or create a blank, A4-sized document.
Access
The dialog can be accessed in the following ways:
- From any editor, by choosing the File » New » Draftsman Document command from the main menus.
- Right-clicking on the entry for the required project, in the Projects panel, and choosing the Add New to Project » Draftsman Document command from the context menu.
Options/Controls
- Templates List - this list includes any defined Draftsman Document Templates (*.DwfDot) found in the Templates Location, specified on the Draftsman - Templates page of the Preferences dialog. Select one of these templates to use in creating the new Draftsman document. Alternatively, to create a new blank, A4-sized Draftsman document (*.PCBDwf), select the [Default] entry.
- Templates - click this button to quickly access the Draftsman - Templates page of the Preferences dialog, where the location of the templates directory is defined.
- Layers - the options here determine which board layers - Signal/Plane, Mask, Paste, Silk, (as defined by the Layer Stack) are used to generate Fabrication drawings in the document (at one per sheet), when a Fabrication document template is used. Drawing layers are always included.
- Project - use this field to select the specific PCB project that you want to create the new Draftsman document for. The drop-down will present a list of all possible projects that are currently open. The newly created Draftsman document will be added to the nominated project.
- Source Document - with the project selected in the field above, this field will typically auto-populate with the PCB design document found within that project. Use the drop-down to select the right board if more than one are defined within the project. The new Draftsman document will use the specified source board document as its context for drawing data from.
Tips
- A Draftsman Sheet Template (*.DwsDot) can be applied once the new document has been created. You will be able to choose from local templates, found in the specified Templates Location. A range of such templates are provided as part of the installation, and located in the default templates location.
