In the freebie Eagle, is there a way to print, for toner transfer, more than
one image per page? I'm trying to maximize use of each toner transfer sheet
while keeping the passes through the printer to a minimum. Exporting a
monochrome TIF for top/bottom/screen and then panelizing in Photoshop, I can
already see, will get very tiresome (not to mention error prone).
Exporting monochrome images to the clipboard is a flabbergasting exercise.
It puts a gray half-tone screen on the image.
So far, I have a PS script to invert, mirror, and extend the canvas for 3
side by side copies. The script to panelize vertically will be just as easy.
But isn't there a better way?
Likewise, I imagine I should be able to script Eagle to export
<filename>TOP.tif, etc., with the appropriate layers, but I'm not that
sophisticated yet. Any tips on how to do this? Do you fancy sharing your
favorite scripts?
Unless, of course, there's a more direct way. Like, File|Print would be
nice...
Last, is there a reason to export with finer resolution than the printer
dpi? I've been exporting 2400 dpi for the LaserJet4, but not sure that
