Hi I wanna finally make these pcbs. I have never done this before.

on jlc it says add gerber files:

However I can only find csv files:

How can I get the gerber files?

JLC conveniently accepts zipped Gerber files. The file GERBER-xxxx.zip contains all Gerbers they need, you can just drag it in the field.

The field label saying “Gerber file” is a mistranslation (wrongly implying there was only one Gerber file).

Ah thank you, yeah I am really a complete noob with this :melting_face:

is there anything else I should take care of? these are the default settings that came when I uploaded the zip file.

thanks for your support so far. this might be sth for their customer support, but I am not able to add this to my card. I made an acount and I am logged in and I tried both firefox and chrome. any Idea why this is not working?

This seems to happen sometimes regardless of which gerbers you upload, so possibly a bug in their system. Try again another time?

The reason you can’t move on is because the page didn’t autodetect board dimensions. You should see a preview of the board and the dimensions should be set automatically.

ok thanks. I kinda gave up and made a DIY board with good ol’ lochrasterplatine.
I really hope to get this to work though one day.

Actually there is a Synch Lab group in Berlin that meets up weekly. I think I wanna go there and ask for help with this, as they also order on that website regularly for their DIY builds.
