Hi every body,

It's the first time i wanna make a PCB. I want to build this :

I just wanna know if the PCB has to be "flip" ? On the PCB of the page is it the composant side or the PCB side show ?
To make the PCB does i have to make a mirror of this image in order to read what it is written on the PCB ?

Thanx
Sorry for my bad english !!

Hi, That should be ok to print as is, if using PNP Blue

When you print onto PNP, it will mirror, then when that transfers to the copper it will be right rightway round again, so you can place the components properly like the layout.

I am not going to use PNP...
I will make it done by a specialist so it's ok if i send this PCB like this to him ?
Sorry for my bad english !!

hi im not sure, as i only use pnp

But if i did send it to a specialist, i would show him the layout so he knows how it should be.

Also if you put some text on it, like "copyright" then that would be a hint as to which way around it goes :icon_wink:

I'm not shure to understand it means that the PCB from my link is OK as it is ?
No changes has to be made ?
Sorry for my bad english !!

If you do a pnp or photopaper transfer, you do not need to flip the PCB on that web page.  You wil, however, need to make sure it is the correct size.
